Are you experiencing these or other problems and not sure how to get out of them?At General Social Work, you can get support.The social worker stands beside you and supports you.Within the support, you yourself are and remain the expert. You know how it works for you (or your family/children). Together we examine what you have already tried unconsciously and what worked and what did not work.
We support you in the goals you want to achieve for yourself. The emphasis is not so much on what is going wrong but on the exceptions where things are going well, so that you can build on them.

Group Work:
In addition to our individual help, we also offer group work: 

Group Step Forward:  Training aimed at increasing self-confidence, resilience, awareness, and problem-solving skills. 

Grief group: In a group you find a lot of recognition with each other and notice that you are not the only one struggling. You can learn a lot from each other, with a laugh and a tear.
