Downloadable Workshop: Moving on from the Shame

In order for us to let go of Shame we must first truly understand what this means for each of us. Raising a child or having a family member struggle with a mental health challenge or addiction is incredibly concerning and often all consuming. Although Shame should never follow a mental health challenge/addiction it typically does. Through this workshop, we will support you to look at how that word shows up in your world and how by working to remove that narrative, it can be a game changer in your own mental health story.

Created by Kirsten Drybrough and Charlotte Sytnyk and facilitated by Kristen.

LOOKING FOR ANSWERS TO YOUR FAMILY'S & YOUR MENTAL HEALTH QUESTIONS?

Downloadable Workshops for Families:

We have created these downloadable workshops for families who are supporting family members who are struggling with mental health challenges/addiction. To us, family support is just as important as individual support. When one member of the family is struggling, the whole family struggles. We call this the parallel process. And so often how the family is feeling or needing is often forgotten especially in a time of crisis.

All IN workshops were created with the family in mind, and how to best support not only your family member but yourself as well.

Our facilitators all have experienced many life challenges e.g., mental health issues, addictions, divorce, death, abuse, etc. and are using those life experiences to share ways that they found useful in their own recovery story. We are not psychologists/counselors/therapists, we are people who have been trained to use our lived experiences to support others and we want to support you.

Each workshop comes with a workbook and a link to a video where Kirsten is there supporting you as she shares our workshop with you.

As you journey with us through this workshop, please use this workbook as a place to put your thoughts, goals, and plans. This is just a tool that you can use or not. And with anything peer support related, this is by invitation not expectation when we encourage you to try.

Our hope is that through our offerings, families will find the extra support and hope that they need on their family’s journey of recovery.

We look forward to being on this journey with you, and please remember you are not alone.
