Metro Mental Health Service

The Metro Centre provides a range of services to lesbian, gay and bisexual people and those questioning their sexuality who are experiencing mental distress:

Counselling
There are times in most of our lives when we experience distressing events and feelings, which seem to have no end or solution in sight.
The Metro Counselling Service offers both short-term and long-term counselling, giving you an opportunity to explore, discover and clarify ways of living more resourcefully and with greater satisfaction.

Advice & Advocacy
Sometimes it can feel difficult to say what you want, secure your rights and obtain the services you need. The Metro Advice & Advocacy Service will provide advice and information on benefits, debt and housing matters.

Weekly mixed drop-in
The Metro Drop-In offers a space to socialise in a comfortable, non-judgemental, relaxed atmosphere, every Thursday between 1 and 4pm.

1-2-1 crisis support
Staff are available at the Metro Drop-In for a short 20 minute 1-2-1 session. Where longer 1-2-1 sessions are needed, appointments can be made outside of Drop-In times.

Alternative therapies
An alternative therapist provides Aromatherapy Massage, Reflexology or Reiki Healing on the 1st Thursday of each month from 12.45pm-3.45pm.

Workshops & Groups
The Metro Centre periodically runs workshops and groups on range of issues.
