Stories

Charlie’s Story

Every week, Charlie volunteers a day of his time as a counsellor at Blacktown, which provides insight into the difficulties many people face. “The hardest part of counselling I think is being with someone in their struggle,” Charlie says. “While there’s a real privilege and an honour in that, it can also be quite hard to see what someone is going through.” Charlie sees up to six clients a day: school children, the elderly, couples and singles. “People come in being honest, being genuine, being vulnerable,” Charlie says. “I feel like that gives you a real full experience of what it is to be a human and connect with another person.”
