" Empower" is our signature three-month adventure therapy program involving a ten-day therapeutic expedition and providing a minimum of 150 hours of therapeutic support for each young person.
Empower, was designed to reach vulnerable young people who are in desperate need of support but won’t engage with conventional community services. Our program takes a fundamentally different approach to how young people access support, by creating an intensive and immersive therapeutic experience outdoors in nature, facilitated by our team of mental health professionals and outdoor adventure specialists.
Through this program we are able to engage young people who otherwise would not access help and it is often the start of a longer therapeutic relationship with us. Young people participate in Empower because of the unique opportunity to take a break from their dysfunctional environments and have an adventure in nature. What they don’t anticipate is the transformative experience that comes from receiving intensive and continuous mental health support throughout the journey.
Our programs provide an unmatched opportunity to form long-lasting therapeutic alliances with supportive and skilled workers who share the journey with them. The expedition is often the only way young people will engage with therapy, because it presents as an adventure and a fun challenge in nature, radically different to their past experiences in clinical counselling settings.
We use the expedition to attract young people who aren’t receptive to conventional services and we find that they stay with us for long after the expedition. After the expedition, they can continue to receive support for as long as needed through a tailored combination of group and individual sessions.
During the expedition, participants learn new positive mental health strategies and coping mechanisms and begin to implement them to process their trauma and overcome the challenges they face at different transitional points in their life. This program provides young people with innovative and responsive mental health support that fundamentally changes their life trajectory, redirecting them towards positive future pathways. As they experience the satisfaction and reward of being supported to overcome physical challenges on the expedition, they begin to develop the confidence and ability to overcome challenges in other areas of their life too.
A significant point of difference from other outreach programs is our investment in qualified workers. Their expertise is applied in the relaxed setting of nature to provide an unmatched opportunity to form long-lasting therapeutic alliances. After the expeditions many young people who wouldn’t otherwise seek help often go on to have long-term individual therapeutic support. The expeditions provide a safe introduction to therapy that then continues for as long as each young person needs.
