We offer various tools and resources to support your well-being
Workshops
The purpose of integration workshops is to help all our clients take that step further in their life and help regain full strength in all aspects. When you have just gone through a life changing experience and something which is very traumatic to you, it really does take full strength and courage to be able to gain that inner strength again to get yourself back up and on your feet.
With our integration workshops, we aim to provide the means which can support you and benefit you to feel that you have control over your life and more importantly yourself. This is done through working on your skills and being given the opportunities to rebuild yourself again and through that rebuild your self-esteem and resilience.

Life Skills & Coaching
This approach is focused on working on the self, relationships, values, core identity, core needs, career, roles, tasks and skills. The purpose of coaching is all about self-empowerment through self-awareness, self-managed and increasing self-efficacy. This is achieved through having open and honest conversations which is slightly different to applying a therapeutic approach. During coaching sessions, you are discussing and actively working together to explore and reach an end goal. The person of coaching is to make change through action, increase self-awareness and make mainly focused on closing the gap between potential and how things are currently.
