ONE TO ONE SUPPORT

LGBT+ Youth Support Workers will work with you using a support plan to help you to identify what you need support with to reach your goals. Your support plan will be reviewed at each session.

One-to-one sessions will be based on the principles of youth work:

  • You choosing to take part
  • Utilising your view of the world
  • Treating you with respect
  • Seeking to develop your skills
  • Helping you develop stronger relationships
  • Respecting and valuing differences
  • Promoting your voice

One-to-one sessions often focus on some of these areas:

  • Sexuality and/or gender identity
  • Helping you reach your full potential
  • Increasing resilience – helping you to bounce back
  • Building and encouraging healthy relationships
  • Building self-esteem and self confidence
  • Improving communication between parents/carers, family and friends
  • Keeping yourself emotionally and physically safe
  • Offering practical support and guidance when appropriate
Our LGBT+ Youth Support Workers are not counsellors however if we feel that a counsellor or another professional would be better placed to give you support, we can discuss those options with you. You can access up to 6 individual support sessions over a period of six months with your youth support worker if you need them.
