We’re proud providers of peer support based on our shared experiences, and positive recovery journey. We’ve been there, done that, felt that, dealt with that.

We’re also proud to be active participants and advocates of the positive recovery movement where focus is on recovery and growth rather than on absence of disease.

First-hand experience of life’s events is called lived experience. Our own lived experience guides our service design and delivery, and gives us unique perspective of going through the challenges in real life instead of learning about them from other sources. When we recover positively from anything in life as a result of direct experience, we gain insights, tools and a healthy mindset that allows us to become a source of joy and strength for others. 

We’re champions of trauma-informed care and strengths-based language. Instead of asking, ‘what’s wrong?’, we ask, ‘what happened?’. Taking on a whole-person approach to healing rather than treatment, we work with our clients towards independence and holistic health.

As experts by experience of having lived with mental health conditions, trauma, sudden loss of a loved one, parenting multiple kids, we carry hope because we’ve lived it. Not only that, we’ve grown through it, not just gone through it.

Personal experience allows us to offer valuable advice that’s practical because it’s rooted in reality, not toxic positivity.
