Skills Coaching via Telehealth

4 Core Skills in 4 Weeks

Learn powerful skills to cope, grow, and live with more intention.

  • Emotional Awareness and Regulation

    Build skills to notice, understand, and work with emotions instead of being overwhelmed by them.

  • Values and Goal-Aligned Behaviour

    Clarify what matters and take action that aligns with one's long-term sense of meaning and direction.

  • Cognitive Awareness and Flexible Thinking

    Develop psychological flexibility and resilience by changing how we relate to our thoughts.

  • Behaviour Change and Skillful Action

    Translate insight into consistent, effective, real-world behaviour that improves wellbeing.

What Is Skills Coaching?

Skills coaching is a focused, practical approach to building real-world skills you can apply in your day-to-day life. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, burnout, emotional dysregulation, low mood, or simply want more tools to thrive, this space is designed to meet you where you're at with clarity, compassion, and zero judgment.

Sessions draw from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you manage emotions, navigate stress, and improve relationships.

What You'll Learn

Each session is tailored to your needs, and may include:

  • ๐ŸŒŠ Distress Tolerance Skills โ€“ for managing crisis moments and emotional overwhelm

  • ๐Ÿง  Mindfulness Practices โ€“ to stay grounded and present in challenging times

  • โค๏ธ Emotion Regulation Techniques โ€“ to better understand, express, and shift emotional states

  • ๐Ÿค Interpersonal Effectiveness Tools โ€“ to communicate clearly, set boundaries, and maintain self-respect

  • ๐Ÿ’ก Values-Based Strategies โ€“ to reconnect with what matters and stay motivated

  • ๐Ÿ” Behavioural Activation & Habit Support โ€“ to turn insight into action

This Is Where Insight Becomes Action.

Confidential. Collaborative. Compassionate.

Youโ€™ll work with a qualified mental health professional in a supportive space. This is a place to build momentum, not stay stuck.

  • Clear, practical language

    This approach uses everyday language to explain complex emotional patterns, so it's easy to understand whatโ€™s happening and why. When things make sense, it becomes easier to take meaningful action. You wonโ€™t get lost in jargon. Youโ€™ll get clarity, insight, and tools that stick.

  • Support without labels, judgment, or diagnostic pressure

    You donโ€™t need a diagnosis to get help. This is a space to explore effective ways to cope and manage mental health. The focus is on building understanding and skills; not assigning blame or boxing people into clinical categories. That kind of clarity leads to confidence, not confusion.

  • Grounded, evidence-based tools

    The line โ€œjust be positiveโ€ or โ€œmanifest your realityโ€ doesnโ€™t belong in effective coaching or therapy. Instead, youโ€™ll learn practical strategies based on decades of psychological research. These tools are taught with explanation and purpose; so you know not just what to do, but why it works. That knowledge helps you take ownership of your mental health and apply it to real-life situations, day after day.

What to Expect From Your First Session

Clarity. Strategy. A personalised plan forward.

Booking your first online assessment isnโ€™t just about telling your story, it's about making sense of it. The initial 50-minute session is a structured, collaborative conversation where you can talk to a qualified mental health professional who will help you:

  • Spot the cycles, triggers, and behaviours that keep showing up; emotionally, mentally, or in relationships. Understanding whatโ€™s happening is the first step toward changing it.

  • Explore how thoughts, emotions, past experiences, and social dynamics interact to shape your current challenges. Gain clarity on the why beneath the surface.

  • Define what you actually want to shift; whether itโ€™s how you feel, how you act, or how you connect. No vague self-improvement. The priority is clear, achievable focus areas.

  • Leave the session with a written outline of your next steps, including options for coaching, skills programs, or self-paced support. No guesswork, just guidance.

  • Get access to online modules, a guided reflection workbook, and practices tailored to your needs. Tools you can return to during the course of the program schedule when you choose.
