My wife who was suffering from cancer was attended by the SEWA group and gave her hope and strength to overcome the pain until she breath her last. They were empowering me and my children to accept the truth and overcome the fear.

The counsellor at SEWA just sat and heard my problems without jumping in and giving me advices like many others whom I approached before. That was when i realised I'm at the right place. I wasn't in a position to hear advices, i just wanted to spill my heart out with problems. Once, i emptied out my worries and concerns, i turned and i asked what to do. That was when i was directed on the right path. I was shown my short comings in a friendly manner and my eyes just lit up to realise the situation i was in and could've handled differently. Thanks to FSSSewa, I'm in a much better and positive situation now. I have found true friend and a confidant.

Vomiting negatives was easy than to accept the realities of life. SEWA showed me the path just like a mother holding the hand and crossing the shaky bridge. The time they spent on me and my parents to make us understand the reality of life cannot be expressed in words. Now we are a happy family understanding and respecting each other. Thank you SEWA.

Family Support Services gave my husband and I the tools to resolve our disputes in a manner that is loving and respectful. The approach was so gentle and kind – you feel instantly at ease. After a few short months of taking these sessions, my marriage is happier, more loving and more joyful than it has been in years. During the sessions, we were able to meditate and speak in calm manner to each other. Their knowledge and support. “gave my husband and I the tools to resolve our disputes in a manner that is loving and respectful.

I would like to thank SEWA team so much for all of the help these past few months. You have been such a great support during this difficult time . You have added some much needed structure and objectiveness to a very difficult and delicate situation and my family and I will always be grateful. I doubt I would have battled through it for so long otherwise.

I am grateful to SEWA for an unbiased resolution to secure my relationship with my partner. The patience they had shown to me and my partner cannot be measured. I was made to understand the value of a strong relationship.

*Lady who has gone through divorce:* FSSSewa has helped me decide whether to try restore my relationship to health, move towards divorce, or take time out and decide later. Through meaningful, interactive conversations in sessions with the therapists and my husband we were able to break down reasons for separation, while trying to open the possibility of restoring the relationship to health. In our sessions, the therapist emphasised the important of each party seeing his or her own contributions to rising problems and the possible solutions. These solutions not only guided us in our relationship but also helped us in other aspects of our individual lives. These sessions have assisted in providing clarity and confidence in our own decision making, and has further helped us to move forward cooperatively to implement the decision we made.

*Children who have gone through divorce:* When my family went through divorce, FSSSewa helped my sister and I in coping with the changes occurring in our home. When our parents could not spend time to explain what was happening, FSSSewa helped out by spending time with us and giving us the compassion and support we needed. My sister and I did not spend too much time grieving over the loss of our parent, but sought out positive strengths that we could work out to make our family lifestyle more effective for each member.

*Adolescent in Trouble:* My teenage years at home were difficult and made me feel miserable most times. My interactions with my parents were severed and so were my friendships at school. After my sessions with FSSSewa, I was able to amend my relationship with my parents by understanding their perspective to situations. This made my time at home very peaceful and productive. Through these sessions, I was able to identify the friends who had my best interests at heart and those who did not. This made me value the friendships that mattered most, and furthermore allowed me to enjoy times at school. The support and understanding I received through these sessions have helped me gain confidence in attacking any future problems in any area of my life. Thank you FSSSewa.
