how we can help
We provide various support for a wide range of social dynamics and individual circumstances
Support
Southern Bridges & Southern Bridges Bournemouth provide various support. Individual support plans are drawn from initial client assessments. This is a plan which determines methods that are most appropriate for their circumstances. We offer the following forms of support which are offered on a regular basis, current dates are available:
Personal Counselling
This method of counselling is carried out by a fully-qualified integrative counsellor who has experience in working with this particular type of client group.
Art Therapy
Art therapy groups are held and facilitated by our counsellors. Guest facilitators also take part in order to demonstrate different types or art, pottery model making, etc. Residents are encouraged to come along and experiment.
Support Group
This is an informal group where residents from the supported houses can meet together for a “coffee, cake and chat”. This form of treatment is an opportunity for them to talk about any issues they are facing and build up an extra support circle.

Motivational Interviewing – Anger management
Assertiveness – Authority/forgiveness
Challenges – Self-esteem
Boundaries – Interviews
