Mates4Mates STAIR Program
- Do you experience difficulties regulating and managing your emotions?
- Do you find yourself in situations responding with more intense emotions than appropriate?
- Do you regularly experience periods of feeling overwhelmed by your feelings?
- Does this impact on your relationships?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then our Skills Training in Affective and Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR) Program might be for you.
What is the STAIR Program?
The STAIR Program has been specifically designed for veterans who have had traumatic experiences and are struggling with the aftereffects post service, so that they can better manage their emotions.
Over 12 group sessions (90 minutes, once per week), participants will work to improve emotional stability and gain effective psychological strategies to improve their capacity to tolerate distress, build resilience, and maintain and strengthen interpersonal relationships.
Upcoming Programs:
Online
Our next program will run online every Monday, starting 30 September to 16 December, from 5:30pm to 7:00pm (AEST).
Please note: there will be no session on Monday, 7 October due to the public holiday in Queensland.
Veterans who are interested in participating in the STAIR Program will need to undertake an expression of interest (EOI) process. This EOI includes a clinical screening to ensure this program is suitable for you.
Expressions of interest for this program will open on Monday, 12 August 2024. If you are interested in upcoming programs, please don't hesitate to contact programs@mates4mates.org.
Places in the program are available to veterans registered with Mates4Mates. If you are not a Mates4Mates member and would like to take part, simply complete the Mates4Mates new client form online and our team will be in touch soon.
