Mental Wellness Awareness, Education & Training From A Peer Perspective & Trauma-Informed Approach

What Clients & Participants Have To Say:

“One of the best mental health talks I’ve attended” - Chris G.

“One of the most realistic presentations I have attended so far” - Joe M.

Unique Peer Perspective

Human Experience Peer Consultant brings a unique evidence-based perspective when it comes to mental wellness education and awareness in the workplace. That is the peer approach and values, essential for your any organization’s programs and culture.

Our staff and collaborators have:

1) Lived experience with mental health challenges and recovery

2) Mental health peer training qualifications

3) A solid corporate business background

This unique skillset maximizes our ability to quickly identify and truly understand the needs and goals of your employees, your managers, your senior leadership, and your organization. We’ve been there too, we truly understand!

After gaining the knowledge and anchoring the foundation, we will build the best and most effective mental wellness program customized for your organization. Not a copycat, nor a temporary fix, but an innovative human experience peer culture!

 

Trauma-Informed Approach

We will move away from the traditional medical model and draw from Peer values and the evidence-based recovery/trauma-informed approach which puts the individual first, as a human being, with their own lived experience and needs. This is crucial for any organization to understand and practice, so their employees thrive at work and at home. Managers and Senior Leadership will play a key role here.

Some of the topics our unique trainings and programs cover:

  • Understanding mental health wellness/challenges, trauma and stigma

  • Identify the signs of psychological distress of your colleagues and employees

  • The importance of human experience and why environment matters

  • Moving toward a trauma-informed approach to mental wellness

  • Integrating Peer values & support (connection, mutuality, worldview, culture)

  • Learning and practicing powerful tools like mindfulness and the Four Quadrants

  • How to communicate my experience, my needs and show vulnerability

  • Managing difficult situations for the employees, managers and the organization
