Real Counties Manukau

In a welcoming environment, our team in Counties Manukau assist young people to get back on track – by supporting them to develop social connections, grow confidence and resilience, and strengthen their connections with family and whanau – so they can live their dreams and thrive in their communities.

In Counties Manukau, Real provide support to taiohi through:

 

Real Talk group programme

Real Talk is a 10-week programme for taiohi aged 12-24 years who need extra support around managing anxiety, depression and/or stress related behaviours.

It’s aimed at taiohi with mild to moderate needs who are not currently engaged in secondary care. Real Talk is designed to help:

  • develop self-esteem and self-confidence
  • manage and reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms using Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), sensory modulation, and mindfulness tools
  • maintain and develop positive relationships
  • decrease feelings of isolation and loneliness and strengthen resilience.

 

Term 2 2024 sessions

Real Talk runs on the school term cycle. Term 2 sessions start on the week beginning on 29 April.

There is some flexibility with session days and times. We will finalise these closer to the start of the programme.
