Teased for being ‘small’…
Sonny* a charming Pri Sch boy was plagued by negative emotions and doubts of his own gender masculinity after his friends teased him about his ‘size’. Through our Family ‘Sex Education’, Sonny understood what it means to be a real man. He learned that a real man is not so much about ‘size’ but about character and integrity. Furthermore, Sonny learned of the dangers of internet predators, the ways they con or groom a child and how compromising acts can even come most unexpectedly from people he already knew and trust! He was also taught how to protect himself against them. Coupled these with an age-appropriate, filtered sharing on the lies of pornography, the stage was paved and set for Sonny to one day, inevitably, navigate the risky cybernet on his own. During the sessions, Sonny’s parents also share their own experiences, comments and encouragements. This is a boost to Sonny’s esteem as he knows that his parents care and bother to broach this sensitive topic with him. He also expressed that he is no longer embarrassed and feels much better about himself.
“The structure and sequence were spot-on” – Sonny’s mother
Caught in sexual habits and wrong kind of peer support…
Jason*, after several psychiatric diagnosis, is a confused young adult who seeks social affirmation about himself in the wrong way. Peers guided him to find love through sex and he unknowingly slides into a web of self destructive habits. Money, wine and flings rule his life until he gets challenged by a different kind of relationship coach – one that does not advocate short term ‘empty’ thrills but ‘fulfilling’ long lasting wholesome relationships. He begins the journey to recognize his real innermost desire of seeking lasting love, and of working in his real need of resolving his own insecurities as the root of his psychiatric symptoms.
“The session was indeed fruitful…” – Jason’s mother
Struggling with self and others all at 1 time…
David*, caught in gender identity confusion, coupled with a harsh military-like social environment, finds himself slipping increasingly into depression and self destruction. Social support and encouragements through mentoring and coaching is what helped sustained him through his most difficult period from a complete breakdown. He continues to find his footing within the harsh environment, and maintain hopes of finding a fulfilling relationship in future, through the consistent coaching and support from his mentor.
“…things will fall into place…” – David, sharing with renewed hope.
