Do you have a list of accredited sight loss counsellors?
Living with sight loss can be difficult, so it's important to take care of your mental wellbeing when you feel overwhelmed or just need a bit of extra support. Talking to someone about your thoughts and feelings surrounding your diagnosis can help with your emotional wellbeing.
Accredited sight loss counsellors are specifically trained to work with people with sight loss. They understand the emotional impact of sight loss and the nuances of each person's experience. They also understand the experiences that someone with sight loss has with health and social care systems.
Accredited sight loss counsellors provide an accessible counselling practice space and will produce counselling information in accessible formats.
You can find a list of accredited counsellors in your area on RNIB's website.
