Eastleigh Womens Wellbeing Group
Open to: People with Mental Illness
We are a peer support group for women experiencing mental health issues, and we welcome adults of all ages, including those residing in Hampshire and the neighbouring counties. You don't need a formal or specific diagnosis to attend, and our group may benefit you if you'd like a safe place to talk, feel less alone with your struggles, make social connections, learn from others, develop your confidence and self-esteem. Sometimes, we focus on a specific life area, such as self-care or relationships, and occasionally we have speakers in the group, yet it's more about being yourself in the group and sharing how things are for you.
We offer an environment where you can feel genuinely heard, understood, valued and accepted, and you can attend the group for as long as you wish.
We understand that it can feel scary coming into the group for the first time, yet we're here for you, and say it's worth giving it a try. If you'd like to attend the group, please contact our Group Coordinator, Vicky Mould.
Who runs this group.
Vicky Mould
Group Coordinator
Hi, I'm Vicky , and I have a professional background in adult mental health - Support Time Recovery Worker, Support Worker, Appropriate Adult, and a set of relationship skills and qualities as a registered counsellor. I established this group in 2015 out of my genuine support of adult mental health, yet more importantly, my ongoing interest in people, their wellbeing and personal development. While it's my role to facilitate a safe, trusting and supportive environment for members, every member contributes to the group experience by being who they are. I feel privileged to be part of such a wonderful group - witnessing the care, understanding and acceptance group members offer to one another, yet also the growing confidence and trust in themselves and their abilities.
