Fathers' Wellbeing Service
The aim of our service
We aim to support local fathers in learning new ways to enhance their mental health, raise overall levels of well-being and improve their wider family dynamics.
Feedback we have gathered from fathers so far indicates that our support has contributed to their "growth as parents" and promotes "stronger family relationships".
Who is it for?
Sessions are available to expectant fathers or those with children under the age of 2 years living in Waltham Forest.
What can we offer?
We provide confidential 1:1 counselling as well as in-person and online group sessions where fathers can establish meaningful connections and learn from one another.
1:1 Counselling
Our services offer personalized and targeted support for fathers in our 1:1 counseling sessions.
Various aspects of wellbeing are explored including emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, and how these impact their lives.
Additionally, we provide strategies to reframe thinking patterns and manage stress responses.
