The Deborah Ubee Trust, a compassionate charity based in Greenwich and Lewisham, is wholly committed to fostering emotional health and well-being across the community. Their fundamental belief is that everyone, irrespective of their financial situation, deserves access to high-quality therapeutic services. Established in memory of Deborah Ubee, who tragically lost her life to depression after struggling to access vital mental health support, the trust strives to ensure that no one else faces similar barriers.
They provide a comprehensive suite of therapeutic and holistic treatments designed to address a wide spectrum of emotional needs. Beyond direct client support, the Trust plays a crucial role in the wider therapeutic community. This includes offering invaluable support and training for placement counsellors, actively promoting and advocating for the very best practices in therapeutic intervention, and providing essential continuing professional development opportunities for practitioners. Their aim is to raise awareness about the profound value of emotional well-being and to offer early intervention and preventative support, fostering resilience from a young age.
For adults, the journey with the Trust typically begins with a confidential assessment, leading to carefully tailored weekly counselling sessions. These sessions provide a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore their thoughts and feelings. Children and young people also receive highly personalised support plans, which can encompass engaging play therapy and dynamic dance and movement therapy, amongst other specialised approaches. This bespoke care ensures that younger clients receive the most appropriate and effective interventions for their unique developmental stages and challenges. The Deborah Ubee Trust operates thanks to the generous support of donations, which enable them to continue their vital work in the local area.
