One of the strengths of our approach is ‘meeting people where they are’. After life-altering experiences, people often feel shock, fear, loss, confusion, and uncertainty. Early on, they may seek professional help from a counsellor. Counselling can help them process their feelings and come to terms with their new reality. Everyone moves forward in their own way; there is no ‘one-size- fits-all’ solution. If someone is re-imagining their future, transformative coaching can bring clarity and renewed purpose.
If people then want to use their experience to make a difference for the benefit of others, they may need to build new knowledge, skills and confidence. Our Peer Leadership Academy has a key role to play. m-powered’s Peer Leadership Network helps sustain personal growth and fosters a strong sense of connection, building on relationships developed through our personal development programmes. People continue to share, learn and access peer support.
Some Peer Leaders want to influence policy or shape service design so join the m-powered Strategic Collaboration Group. They share their insights and put their leadership skills into action by collaborating with a wide range of organisations via our Lived Experience Managed Service.
