A Safe Space to Talk, Without Judgment
The Listening Ear
Life throws challenges at all of us. Sometimes you just need someone to listen - really listen - without trying to fix you or tell you what to do.
That's what The Listening Ear offers: a confidential space where you can talk through whatever's weighing on you with someone who's trained to listen.
When It Might Help
You might be dealing with:
Ill health or chronic conditions
Bereavement and loss
Relationship breakdown
Unemployment or work stress
Major life changes
Or simply feeling low, anxious, or overwhelmed
If you need to talk it through, we're here.
What to Expect
Who: Open to anyone 18 and over
Format: Face-to-face, confidential appointments
Length: 50 minutes
Location: Maud Resource Centre or Aden Health Centre
Cost: Free
All our listeners are professionally trained. This isn't therapy or counselling - it's a supportive conversation in a safe environment, free from judgment.
