This programme has been excellent for my son, he his much more relaxed and happy at home and he is not sad and uptight anymore. This is a wonderful way for children to express and let their feelings out and I definitely recommend this class if your child is struggling with grief. Even teachers have noticed the change in my sons behaviour. I am so thankful OCEANS could help my son - Parent

Until I started counselling, I didn’t realise how much stress I was under and how this affected my three young children. Life can be chaotic and demanding, but I realised that spending a little time for myself has helped me and my family tremendously. I now live with hope for a brighter future, and my children are happier too"
