How does the program work?

Curious about how mental health coaching can help you? Here’s what to expect in YourCoachPlus.

Once a week, you’ll connect with your Coach by phone, or video, to discuss how you’re feeling and review your progress. During your first session, which usually lasts about an hour, your Coach will take the time to understand your key challenges and help you define one or two areas to focus on. From there, you’ll work together to create a personalised plan, featuring practical steps you can take to boost your wellbeing and feel more in control. Our Coaches come from a multidisciplinary team that includes social workers, counsellors, and other trained specialists, ensuring you receive tailored, professional support.

Between sessions, you’ll have opportunities to practice new skills and approaches in your everyday life. In follow-up sessions, your Coach will check in on your progress, help refine your goals, and offer further guidance to keep you on track. Since each person’s situation is unique, your Coach can also link you with other services or resources you might need, especially if issues such as housing, employment, or finances are affecting your mental health. Research shows that low-intensity CBT approaches like those used in YourCoachPlus can be remarkably effective in improving wellbeing. If you require more specialised or intensive help than this program offers, your Coach will be happy to recommend a service that better meets your needs.

So, if you’re ready to take the first step toward feeling stronger and more supported, YourCoachPlus can provide the guidance you need.
