At Melrose Care, our unwavering commitment to the well-being of children, youths and families drives us to ensure that our services remain accessible to all.
With a multidisciplinary team of trauma-informed therapists, counsellors and psychologists, we support:
- Children and youths aged 7 to 18 who have difficulties managing emotions
- Adult caregivers of young persons aged 7 to 18 who have been impacted by adverse childhood experiences, and whose own trauma interferes with meeting the needs of their child
Through the provision of subsidised counselling and therapy, our mission is rooted in assisting clients in understanding their challenges and supporting them to develop coping skills to address the issues they present with. By fostering a stronger, healthier community, we believe that together, we can create a nurturing environment where every individual can heal and grow.

Who does Melrose Care support?
Melrose Care provides support to:
- Children and youths aged 7 to 18 who have difficulties managing emotions
- Adult caregivers of young persons aged 7 to 18 who have been impacted by adverse childhood experiences, and whose own trauma interferes with meeting the needs of their child
What are adverse childhood experiences?
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) refer to potentially traumatic events that occur during an individual’s childhood that can undermine their sense of safety, stability, and bonding.
Examples of ACEs include growing up in a household with:
- Violence, abuse or neglect
- Family members struggling with addiction or substance abuse problems that interferes with caregiving responsibilities
- Mental health concerns within the family
- Instability due to parental conflict or abrupt departures of household members due to death, imprisonment or abandonment
It’s important to note that this list is not exhaustive, as many other traumatic experiences can also significantly impact a person’s health and wellbeing.
What are the impacts of adverse childhood experiences?
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) can have profound and long-lasting impacts on individuals, both physically and emotionally. Research has shown that individuals who have experienced ACEs may face a higher risk of various physical and mental health issues later in life. Some of the common impacts of ACEs include:
- Physical health issues
- Mental health problems
- Social and relationship difficulties
- Emotional regulation issues
- Cognitive and learning difficulties
- Increased risk of revictimisation
- Substance abuse and addiction
Appropriate support and interventions can significantly improve outcomes for individuals who have experienced adverse childhood experiences.
What does being trauma-informed mean?
At Melrose Care, we embrace a trauma-informed approach, which entails recognising and acknowledging the impact of trauma on individuals and communities. We understand how traumatic experiences can affect physical, emotional and psychological well-being, which may lead to various coping mechanisms and behaviours.
Our Philosophy of Care revolves around the key principles of Choice, Feedback, Inclusivity, Acknowledgement and fostering a Trauma-informed Community.
