What is the Relate 4 Parents Service?
Relate 4 Parents is a service offering support and information to any parent, whether you are living together with your children, or you are a single parent, a step-parent, separating or separated parent. The only criteria is that you wish to focus on the needs of your child and are willing to collaborate to improve your relationship with them. This service is delivered in one session but if you and the counsellor agree that further sessions would be helpful we may be able to offer these.
How to get Started
All you need to do to register for the service is to email us on counselling@relatecambridge.org.uk . The admin team will then send you a registration form for you to complete giving us brief details of the issues that you want to discuss.
When will the Relate 4 Parents service help?
The service can provide support, advice and information on issues such as disagreements about differences in parenting style, or how to talk to your child about separation, divorce or a bereavement. The session is focused on the areas of concern you have about your child and are designed to enhance your parenting skills, extend your knowledge of your child’s development and behaviour, and gain insight into the issues you may be struggling with.
How much will the session cost?
It costs £90 for a 50 minute session, and once you have registered with us we will try to see you as soon as we can.
