Group Counselling

We know that being a Duchenne parent or carer is tough, and that a diagnosis like Duchenne impacts many of the relationships in your life. We know that it’s hard to find people who understand and that support can be hard to come by. 

Action Duchenne is offering FREE online group counselling programmes to Duchenne parents and carers. These sessions will be a safe and supportive space to explore issues such as anticipatory grief, coping strategies and managing anxiety. 

We’re planning for this to start from September 2023 and there will be day and evening sessions available for an 8 week programme. All we ask is that you are able to commit to the full 8 weeks. 

If you’re interested and would like to more, please email our Support Officer Kelly:

Turning Challenges into Change – Our Story with Action Duchenne

I was introduced to Action Duchenne by the Muscle Team in Newcastle shortly after Oliver’s diagnosis in 2017. In those early, overwhelming days, their support meant everything. Members of the Support Team would call just to let me talk, vent, cry — whatever I needed. They were simply there, and that’s why I choose to support them every …
