Mental Health is about people and our connection between our internal and external worlds. This two-day foundational training supports a wide variety of professionals and caregivers who support individuals living with mental illness and/or poor mental health. Using a human-centred approach, we can remove the band-aid approach to engaging with individuals and explore how safety and connection are the root of healing. We will work together to understand the basics, the role of safety and connection, and strategies to sustain the balance needed to thrive within this human experience known as life. We encourage you to bring your stories and your wisdom as we work toward building a strength-based approach to supporting the humanness of changes in our mental health.
