Resilience

Personal Strength

Resilience Workshops

Learn to bounce back from hardship by accepting what can't be changed, problem solving what can, and continuing to do your best when self-doubt gets in their way.

Everyone gets stuck sometimes. Stuck with critical self-evaluations. Stuck doing the same thing over and over even though we don't like the results. Stuck with pain and unable to find the joy and vitality in life.

Imagine developing the ability to recognise when you are stuck, and flexibly shifting perspective and approach to rediscover that vitality and purpose. Imagine growing up with these abilities…

These workshops build psychological flexibility – the ability to get unstuck.

Our Personal Strength Resilience Workshops use an evidence-based model of psychological flexibility (DNA-V, a developmental ACT model, © DNA-V, L. Hayes & J. Ciarrochi, www.thrivingadolescent.com) to work through real problems. To learn more about the DNA-V model, check out the first three episodes of the Personal Strength Podcast. Especially Episode 3: ACT therapy for Teenagers and Episode 4.

Workshops are designed and run by Dr Nicole Weeks. Nicky s a PhD and Masters qualified psychologist and has been teaching and researching positive psychology (the science of understanding what helps people thrive) since 2008.
