About Us
We offer assistance that is respectful and sensitive to the needs of all individuals regardless of age, gender, financial status, cultural or religious background.
We provide counselling services for:
- families
- couples
- individuals
- children and young people
- disability carers.
Our Counsellors
Each counsellor has a tertiary qualification in the social sciences field with practical experience in family and relationship counselling. Our counsellors will refer clients to other appropriate services for issues that are outside their field of expertise or where the issue does not fit within the guidelines of this program. Our counselling is confidential (see below) and aims to assist people to develop self-understanding, to explore and resolve their issues and to make changes in their lives.
Services for Carers
Family Relationship Services for Carers provides counselling and services to families caring for a person with a disability. Centacare recognises that taking care of a family member can be challenging. Sometimes carers feel isolated and worry about how they are going to manage it all, now and in the future. Taking care of carers is important.
This program is a free service funded by Department of Social Services. Families are assisted to:
- manage challenges and conflicts that may arise within the family
- discuss their concerns and issues around family relationships and the care of a family member with a disability
- make decisions about future care arrangements.
Families caring for a family member with a disability across Queensland can access up to six sessions free of charge.

Whilst we are a Catholic agency, we provide these services to the entire community, regardless of religion, circumstance, ethnicity, economic situation, age, gender or ability. You will find Centacare services in every corner of South East Queensland. With a workforce of more than 3000, including our invaluable volunteers, and operating from more than 200 locations, we provide help and create hope for more than 150 000 people each year. With funding from both the Federal and Queensland governments, we are able to provide quality services to those in need of a range of services including childcare, support services for the aged and people with a disability as well as relationship education, counselling and support. We are grateful to our army of volunteers and donors who enable our non-government funded work in prisons, hospitals, psychiatric pastoral care and Indigenous communities. At Centacare, we want you to feel welcome, supported and treated with respect each and every time you access one of our services. We strive to deliver professional and accountable services whilst empowering our clients to find solutions and achieve their goals.
