About Anglicare Southern Queensland – Booval
Anglicare Southern Queensland’s Booval office offers drug and alcohol intervention alongside family and relationship counselling, and is the Ipswich base for Youth In Charge. Free alcohol and drug counselling is available there to young people aged 14 to 25, with no referral needed before making contact.
Counsellors also travel, with outreach across Ipswich, the Lockyer and Somerset areas and towns further into south-west Queensland. A young person can enquire directly, or a practitioner can refer through Anglicare’s own enquiry form or phone line. The office works weekdays and is closed at the weekend, though exact opening times are not stated.

Anglicare Southern Queensland Counselling Services
Youth In Charge, delivered from Anglicare Southern Queensland’s Booval office, provides outpatient alcohol and drug counselling for young people aged 14 to 25. Counselling is the single level of care named; the team also offers drug and alcohol intervention and family and relationship counselling at the same site.
Outreach extends the counselling beyond Booval into Ipswich, Lockyer, Somerset and south-west Queensland towns, which matters for a young person without transport. The research names no specific therapies, substances, medications or assessment tools for this office, and no withdrawal or rehabilitation service is offered here, so ask the youth team directly what sessions involve.

Anglicare Southern Queensland Reviews
Reviews of Anglicare Southern Queensland’s Booval office from around the web are limited, and youth counselling services seldom gather public feedback because most clients are young and move on quickly. RehabSeekers hosts reviews, and anyone who has attended is welcome to write one.
Parents and carers often have as much to say as the young person: how easy it was to get a first appointment, whether the counsellor connected, and how outreach worked when travelling to Booval was not possible. Those details would help another family in the Ipswich area decide.
