Jimmy's Story

"I was having a rough time, and my parents kept recommending counselling for me to talk to someone. 

"I was a bit nervous going to the first session, but it ended up just being like having a good conversation with a friend. 

"I’d recommend that young people go to counselling because it’s really good and it helps clear your head and makes you feel better about yourself."
