PARENTLINE
WebChat Counselling
Open 8am-9pm, 7 days a week.
WebChat counselling is a great alternative to phone counselling, if you prefer writing to talking.
It's similar to Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp - except you need to login through the Parentline website.
WebChat can be a helpful first step to talk about what you're going through and to look at some options which may help improve things.
