DASS testimonials
Here are some of the ways we’ve helped young people in Portsmouth:
“Finn has been so helpful in the short time we have worked together, I feel like I can fully trust him and be honest with him about how I feel with no judgement. He has made me feel more comfortable with myself and ultimately has done his job with supporting me to stop misusing substances. I appreciate the effort he put in to our sessions”
"I have learnt multiple things when working with DASS. I have learnt how to establish better boundaries, what triggers me to use alcohol and better coping mechanisms to replace alcohol. I’ve achieved so much because of DASS and I am now sober. I have now started college in a new and better environment with supportive family members and my mental health is so much better and I live a productive life now."
"I'm in a good place from where I was before. I was in a bad time in my life and things have been good."
"[DASS helped with] advice for cutting down before, helped me slow down alcohol use. Accessed other support services - stop smoking to see options. Added to my book on knowledge of my substance abuse and how it affects my mental health."
"[DASS helped with] ways to manage and keep my drug use under control and ways to help me quit which I practically have"
