LOCATION: Brantford
OFFERED: In-Person or Virtual Groups
All ARTC clients and their family members have access to mental health/counselling services through our Client Support Worker (CSW) - Sherry McKinnon.
Sherry meets with clients and family members, virtually, by phone or in-person.
Our CSW is a part of the Aphasia team and has worked with clients who have had strokes and brain injuries, for many years. Client and family work is a part of the role with this group. Our CSW co-facilitates the Aphasia program groups and the Brain Stroke Recovery Group. Sherry works with the Aphasia team to offer Communication Partner Training for clients and families.
If clients need other community resources, ARTC’s CSW will refer them to the appropriate services with their permission. The CSW also offers short-term groups to clients on diverse topics such as “Resilience” and “Mindfulness Training”.
ARTC offers 2 caregiver groups that are virtual at this time. This provides greater access to family members from Brantford -Brant, Haldimand and Norfolk to participate.
If you have a family member at ARTC and are interested in either of these groups, please contact our Client Support Worker, Sherry McKinnon.
“We know the best caregivers are the ones who look after themselves first, so they can serve from a place of fullness”
