Counseling Unit.
Karunanilayam is dedicated to providing holistic care and support to individuals with mental challenges and the elderly. In line with our commitment to enhancing the well-being of our residents and the broader community, we have recently established a Counseling Unit. This report outlines the initiatives and activities undertaken by our newly appointed psycho-social residential counselor. We thank our Donors, “Friends of Karunanilayam UK”, under the leadership of Dr.Pararasan Arulanantham and T.Chrishanthan.
Our counseling unit provides specialized psycho-social support to residents who are mentally challenged and elderly.
Conducting one-on-one counseling sessions tailored to the individual needs of residents. Developing personalized care plans that address emotional, social, and psychological needs. Facilitating group therapy sessions to promote social interaction and peer support among residents. Providing crisis intervention and support for residents experiencing acute psychological distress.
In addition to residential counseling, the Counseling Unit actively engages with the wider community.
Organizing seminars on mental health awareness, tailored to different demographic groups within the community. Conducting workshops that equip community members with skills to support mental health and well-being. Collaborating with local health and social services to ensure a holistic approach to community mental health.
The Counseling Unit has successfully conducted several workshops and seminars aimed at raising awareness and providing education on mental health issues. The establishment of the Counseling Unit at Karunanilayam marks a crucial step forward in our mission to provide comprehensive care. By addressing the psycho-social needs of our residents and fostering mental health awareness in the community, we are creating a more supportive and informed environment for all. We are committed to continuing these efforts and expanding our reach to benefit more individuals in the future
