Program Details
I offer a transformative 1-year program, designed to empower mentees on their journey to improved mental health and wellness. With a focus on building trust and rapport, each month includes 4 engaging 1-on-1 'hangout' sessions. This frequency and consistency allows for genuine connections, personalized support, and meaningful growth.
Through casual activities and intentional guidance, I help individuals explore their emotions, challenge negative thoughts, and develop essential life skills. With an emphasis on nurturing positive relationships, fostering self-confidence, and setting achievable goals, this comprehensive program paves the way for personal growth and leaves mentees feeling empowered.
The program is inspired by Big Brothers Big Sisters, informed by the research being conducted by Search Institute on Developmental Relationships, and fuelled by my desire to help bridge the gap between medical professional care and the day-to-day lives of the young people in our community.
What's Included:
Additional Benefits:
- I keep an open and flexible schedule to easily accommodate your schedule when making plans. This also allows me to be available when it feels urgent, plus it allows us to attend all kinds of events that are date and time specific.
- The flexible hours also allow us to schedule around planned/unplanned time away or illnesses.
- If the mentee will be away for longer than a 2-week period at any time during the contract, adjustments can be made for that month’s hours/hangouts and rates.
- There are no last-minute cancellation penalties. I will always be understanding and happy to reschedule to another time, within the current month. But – I strongly encourage keeping plans when possible, it strengthens accountability and develops a sense of responsibility.
- Any money remaining from the $100 activity budget at the end of the month will be carried over to the next month.
