Individual Peer Support

We’ve struggled. So we can relate.

Every one of us on the GraceWins team has been through our own lived experience of a ‘life-transforming struggle’ – severe mental illness, addictions, abuse, homelessness and the like. Every one of us has come through the other side of the struggle a stronger, wiser, more resilient, more grateful person. We share a passion to use what we have learned through our life-transforming struggles to support those that are going through theirs in an authentic peer support relationship that is based in trust, equality, mutuality and empowerment.

One-on-One Peer Support

When a person connects with us for individual peer support we consider their situation; their unique struggle, the practicalities of their situation – where they are located, how they prefer to be supported, availability and such – and pair them with a GraceWins team member who is accordingly best suited to peer support the person. Thereafter the person and the peer supporter develop the peer support relationship in ways that best suits the goal of the relationship which is to enable the person to advance in their recovery journey and realize their potential.

Individual peer support may be offered in-person or remotely, by phone or online. It depends on what best suits the person seeking the peer support and the practical considerations of both individuals. Both, the person being supported and the peer supporter – are responsible for the success of the relationship. Key to the success of any peer support relationship is the willingness of the person being supported to do the work involved in moving forward in their unique recovery journey.

No diagnosis or referral necessary. Just a desire to move forward in one’s unique recovery journey and the willingness to the work involved.

No fee: There is no charge for our individual peer support service.
