Therapeutic Activities
We pride ourselves on our ability to deliver our wide range of therapeutic activities in-house. Our trusted team of qualified facilitators are recruited specifically for their specialist skills within their fields. This enables us to provide the highest quality therapy experiences for our clients.
Through the sessions we promote hope and empowerment whilst facilitating opportunities to discover and develop potential new interests on each client’s recovery journey. Our therapeutic activities support personal recovery, which involves moving away from a focus on treating illness and towards promoting well-being.
We embed the following core characteristics in our sessions:
- Mutuality – a relationship based on shared experience, empathy, authenticity and respect
- Reciprocal – all contribute to and gain from the relationship in a shared process of problem solving
- Non-directive – within a peer relationship, one person does not prescribe what is ‘good for’ the other
- Recovery-focused – the relationship focuses on helping people to grow within and beyond what has happened
- Strengths-based – it recognises people’s courage, strengths and skills
- Inclusive – peers help people to engage with and contribute to their communities
- Progressive – a shared journey of learning and growing together
- Safe – feeling able to express ourselves freely in a supportive relationship
You can read about our range of specialist therapeutic activities in more detail over the following pages. However, this is not an exhaustive list of the services we offer; we work closely with each client to put together a holistic recovery care plan which considers their individual social inclusion choices. Sessions can be delivered on a one-to-one basis or in small groups depending on the client’s needs.
We are also in the process of setting up a mutual self-help group. We believe people with their own lived experience of mental health illness can directly contribute to the recovery of others through peer support.
