OUR PROJECTSCOUNSELLING

CREST has Counselling Programs in various fields with practical exposure focusing on Preventive Counselling, which gives correct and adequate knowledge and promotes positive attitudes in important areas of life, seeking help when confronted with a problem, learning the skills necessary to develop stable and satisfying relationships with a sound system of values. Preventive Counselling was given through Career Counselling, Counselling for Substance Abuse & Alcoholism, and so on.

PRO-LIFE COUNSELLING

In this type of counselling, we seek to resolve the underlying problems which may give rise to a request for an abortion. Experience has shown that 60-80% of women seeking abortion, if given Comprehensive Counselling and ongoing support, do change their minds and have a better chance of being more secure, according to research.

COUNSELLING AFTER ABORTION

It is crucial that all the known facts about the unborn child and about the abortion procedure are given to the client requesting abortion. Most girls come in for counselling after the abortion with fear and guilt, while others battle it out on their own, trying to face the existing society with its existing attitude towards an unmarried pregnant girl.

FAMILY / MARRIAGE COUNSELLING / PREVENTIVE COUNSELLING FOR SEXUAL RESPONSIBILITY: Marriage Preparation / Marriage Relationship and Genetic Counselling

Adolescence is the transitional stage between adulthood and childhood. Boys become gradually aware that girls are attractive and alluring. While, the girl realizes that boys are different and desirable. Sexual maturity and understanding of the opposite sex come gradually with experience of healthy social mixing, which should be encouraged.

CAREER COUNSELLING

We have helped and guided many to choose their careers, as we had many youth walk into CREST. This involves Aptitude Testing, Career Guidance and Face to Face Counselling was given at the State Youth Centre and at CREST. We have also had working professionals come in to access their levels of aptitude.

Counselling at CREST includes aptitude testing, personality type, self-image and time management skills. Students will also receive training in communication skills, motivation, and management of strengths and weaknesses.
