Our current programme of Managing Me courses has been funded as a part of the Kent County Council Early Help Programme – providing young people with access to support.
Managing Me is a 6 week course specifically designed to provide young people with a chance to learn how to cope with life and focuses on dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and self-image.
Utilising Cognitive Behavioural Coaching techniques, self-analysis exercises, peer interaction support and 1-to-1 recovery action planning, the course enables participants to:
– Explore mental health in it’s broadest context and improve awareness.
– Understand anxiety and how it can affect people, introducing theory around thoughts, feelings and behaviours whilst encouraging participants to explore their own anxiety.
– Learn about different thinking styles and how these can have an impact upon life, with a particular focus on negative thinking styles.
– Learn 3 different techniques to improve relaxation.
– Understand stress and depression to better identify what causes both stress and depression whilst looking at the support networks that they themselves have available.
– Explore life-long coping strategies to recover from ill mental health or maintain wellbeing.
We are currently offering support to young people between the ages of 9 and 18. Courses are split into age segments to ensure good peer-to-peer relationships across all of our programmes.
