Plans for a new counselling service - which could see people wait just seven days for support - are underway on the Isle of Man.
It’s hoped the ‘Brighter Teaching’ model, which has already been rolled out in the UK, can be successfully implemented on the Island to help reduce waiting lists for people needing therapy.
Accredited training opportunities are being offered to student counsellors who, as part of their placements, will provide hundreds of hours of counselling therapy under supervision.
