ABOUT LAUREL HOUSE
Laurel House provides a range of trauma-informed, evidence-based, therapeutic services to victim-survivors of sexual assault, their families and supporters.
We also develop and deliver a broad range of programs to adults, young people, and children including the provision of therapeutic face-to-face counselling at our centres located at Launceston, Devonport, and Burnie and through outreach locations across North and North West Tasmania.

Laurel House delivers the PAST (Prevention, Assessment, Support and Treatment) Program for children and young people (aged 17 years and under) who have displayed harmful sexual behaviours in North and North West Tasmania.
