In addition to our training programs, we also provide one-on-one parenting support and group programs. We believe in equipping both adults and young people with the knowledge and skills to navigate mental health challenges effectively.

Psychotherapy is another avenue we explore to enhance mental health. Our goal is to empower individuals to lead their best lives by educating them about mental health and offering support. We recognize the importance of education in workplaces and schools regarding mental health issues and crises, as well as the significance of supporting one another.

At Empowered Existence, we offer Mental Health First Aid courses for young people, adults, and teens. We also provide the 'Tuning into Teens' program for adults and carers of teenagers. All our trainings can be delivered on-site at your workplace or school, ensuring participants feel equipped to support those around them.

Throughout the year, we can deliver the Youth, Teen, and Standard Mental Health First Aid courses privately to schools, agencies, and community organizations in Victoria. With our extensive experience in running groups and tailored programs within schools, we can develop and deliver programs for any year level, covering a wide range of emotional, social, or mental health issues.

Statistics show that one in five young people aged 13-18 live with a mental health condition, and 3.2 million young people have experienced mental health issues in the past year alone. Half of all lifetime cases of mental illness begin by age 14. Early detection and proper support are crucial to ensure young people receive the necessary treatment.

Our Teen Mental Health First Aid courses are designed for high school students in year 7-9 and 10-12. Students will learn how to provide mental health first aid to their friends, based on guidelines developed by individuals with lived experience of mental health problems and professionals.

The Tuning into Teens program is a six-session program that supports parents in helping their teenage children control, understand, and express their emotions in healthy ways. It focuses on emotional intelligence and offers various strategies and approaches.

We understand that every family and individual has unique needs, which is why we offer tailored one-on-one parenting support. Our program can be customized to address your young person's specific needs, providing support and information over four to six weekly sessions.

Millions of people have become Mental Health First Aiders, and we invite you to join them. In these uncertain times, with the global pandemic of Covid-19 affecting us all, prioritizing mental health is more important than ever.
