Our Services

Personal Storytelling Coaching

We offer personalized coaching to help individuals with lived experience craft and share their stories safely and impactfully for advocacy and healing.

Lived Experience Bureau

We connect organizations with trained mental health advocates who share personal stories and insights to enhance programs, research, and events.

WHO QualityRights Integration

We provide training and consulting to help organizations align mental health practices with international human rights standards.

Organizational Mental Wellness & Workplace Programs

We help institutions build inclusive, mentally healthy workplaces that prevent burnout and support all employees.

Peer-Led Psychosocial Support

We run support groups led by trained peers, offering emotional support and psychoeducation in safe, community-based settings.

Climate & Mental Health Advocacy

We raise awareness of how climate change affects mental well-being and advocate for inclusive, eco-mental health solutions.

Wellness in Nature

We organize therapeutic outdoor experiences that use nature to promote emotional healing and stress relief.

Mental Health & Inclusion Trainings

We deliver interactive workshops on mental health literacy, stigma reduction, suicide prevention, and inclusive practices.

To promote mental well-being, foster inclusive development, and strengthen community-based psychosocial response systems—especially in marginalized and underserved communities.

We center our work around the lived experiences of those most affected. By combining community-driven action, personal storytelling, and evidence-based frameworks, we ensure that our interventions are empathetic, empowering, and sustainable.

The first of its kind in the Global South, this network equips individuals with psychosocial disabilities to use their experiences for education, healing, and change.
