Bringing Teesside together for
better mental health,
stronger communities and brighter futures.
At Connect we believe..
The relationships and social interactions in our lives can play a powerful role in regulating our nervous system and reducing stress. Feeling safe, understood and connected to others can help our bodies move out of survival mode into a calmer state.
Human connection reminds us that we are not alone. Whether its a conversation, a supportive relationship or simply being around people who make us feel safe, connection can help us feel grounded, supported and more able to cope with life's challenges.
Our Commitment to
Accessible Care
We are a community interest company dedicated to removing barriers to mental health support by providing free counselling and wellbeing services to anyone in Teesside who needs help, fostering an inclusive environment for healing and growth.
Connecting People, Shaping Futures.
Connect Mums & Families
Family life can be rewarding, but it can also feel overwhelming. Parenthood, relationships, changing roles, exhaustion and the pressures of everyday life can all impact our mental health and wellbeing.
At Connect in Teesside, we provide a safe, compassionate space for mums and families to talk openly about what they’re experiencing. Whether you’re struggling with your identity as a parent, relationship difficulties, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, family pressures or simply feeling like you’ve lost yourself along the way, you don’t have to face it alone.
Connect Men's MH
Mental health can affect anyone, but men can sometimes feel pressure to keep things to themselves, push through or deal with things alone.
At Connect in Teesside, we provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space for men to talk openly about whatever they’re experiencing, whether that’s stress, anxiety, low mood, relationships, work pressures, anger, trauma or simply feeling like things are becoming too much.
You don’t have to have all the answers. You just need somewhere to start.
ADHD
Living with ADHD can affect far more than concentration. It can influence emotions, relationships, confidence, work, routines and the ability to manage everyday life.
At Connect in Teesside, we offer a supportive, understanding space for people with ADHD to explore the challenges they’re experiencing without judgement. We can help you develop a better understanding of yourself, build practical coping strategies and work through difficulties with emotional regulation, overwhelm, self-esteem and relationships.
You don’t need to change who you are — we can help you understand yourself and find strategies that work for you.
Workplace Stress
Work can have a significant impact on our mental health, particularly when pressure, expectations or difficult relationships begin to feel overwhelming.
At Connect in Teesside, we provide a safe and confidential space to talk about workplace stress, burnout, anxiety, difficult working relationships, feeling overwhelmed or struggling to switch off outside of work.
Therapy can help you understand what’s contributing to your stress, develop healthier coping strategies, set boundaries and regain a sense of balance and control.
You don’t have to wait until you’re burnt out to ask for support.
