It is 15 years...

since A Way Out first started supporting vulnerable women, young people and families in Stockton. 

Our longest serving staff member has clocked up an impressive10 years with the organisation, offering one of our most valuable services.  Franca, our in-house Psychotherapist, has delivered a decade of therapy sessions. 

Traditionally a 10 year anniversary may be celebrated with tin or aluminium. Aluminium, known for possessing excellent resistance to corrosion with highly adaptable strength, is great for joining things together and these qualities could aptly describe the mettle of our Franca. 

Franca’s on going service to A Way Out has stood the test of time…without corrosion!   Her adaptable person centred therapy sessions provide a service that is strong, solid and reliable for each individual client.  As for joining things together, Franca is a superb in connection with our staff teams to equip the whole organisation with valuable knowledge and techniques to better support our clients.

Aluminium is also a good reflector of light and Franca too has an innate quality in enabling self recognition and appreciation of each individual’s own shining, positive qualities.

Under Franca’s watchful co-ordination, A Way Out’s Psychotherapy Service is supported by a small team of valuable volunteer counsellors – one of A Way Out’s many volunteering opportunities.

A Way Out is very grateful to Franca for her 10 years of dedication and the charity is looking forward to further developing and building upon the Psychotherapy service in the coming years. 

It is our hope that we will continue to celebrate decades of service with an increasing number of staff, volunteers and supporters.
