Standing at the core of our values are human rights, for people and the planet. These rights are often reflected in economic growth and development projects and environmental consciousness initiatives. Liberties are important aspects of operational actions, pathways to fair compensation, and other person-centred policies, practices, and solutions. You can read more about Human Rights here.
From Mission to Services: Strategic Plan
Our services are firmly anchored in our strategic plan, guiding us toward excellence and impact. Our strategic plan is broad and allows for us to adapt to issues arising in our services trending from mediation, counselling, the arts, to supports (Hertz, 2008). We have integrated strategic planning into our service offerings. This approach is based on the principle of inherent human dignity and the conviction that every individual is entitled to respect. Our services are carefully crafted from a human rights standpoint, emphasising four fundamental pillars.

Additionally, we offer wedding, marriage, and partnership support, which is intricately linked with our mediation and counselling services. Weddings, Commitments, and Premarital Counselling. Building creative solutions are at the forefront of our approach— we understand that by using innovative entry points, we can create whole-of-person support. Our services are not simply offerings; they are purposeful actions driven by our strategic vision to make a meaningful difference.
From Mission to Services: Adaptive Planning and Procedures
In today’s rapidly changing digital landscape, the significance of having an online presence has become increasingly important for organisations of all sizes. Meanwhile with the vast amount of information available, it is crucial to prioritise simplicity as an effective approach. However, what may be considered simple for one organisation could be perceived as more complex for others.
From Mission to Services: Delivery and Core Values
We prioritise core values for the advancement of education, as well as for the promotion of human rights. We provide human rights informed mediation, counselling, whole-of-person support, and the arts to best serve those in need. Human rights principles incorporating the following certainly guide us:
- Access to fair hearings;

From Mission to Services and Healing
You may think your problems are sweeping you off your feet. It can be challenging to reach out for help. We suggest practical tips and techniques for optimised living. See our Various Healing Techniques. Furthermore support should be diverse to meet your individualised requirements.
We set out to see you succeed and this is shaped by your needs and circumstances. Improved health reduces such challenges as heart complaints, diabetes, and stroke. Next, let’s explore our service philosophy and practices. The study of organisational elements frequently raises philosophical inquiries (Tsoukas, et al. 2024). This theoretical framework serves to analyse, evaluate, and elucidate fundamental concepts, thought processes, and the assumptions people may hold. To read about your first intake session please see Home.
From Mission to Services: Philosophy and Practices
When you move towards resolving relationship conflicts and impasses, there are numerous ways you can receive help. For example, consider ONM and ODR – From Conflict to Management. Mediation, counselling, and support services are some of the most commonly used options. Also, read Providing Outreach Support Services, Including Mediation and Telehealth. Consequently you may recognise that each of these types of help offer a variety of advantages and disadvantages. These should be carefully weighed before deciding which suits your life context best.
From Mission to Services Support
Support services are designed to help you in meeting your current needs and perspectives. Meanwhile this may aid you to feel calmer when faced with sudden life events like illness, disability, bereavement, and relationship challenges, among others. Support ranging from, information, referrals, to coordination may be beneficial in serving you and your family and friends.
If you are going through tough periods in your life, support will ideally adapt to meet your changing whole-of-life situations. Presently you may fall out of the scope of specialised programs and benefit from generalised support services. Moreover these services can be invaluable tools for managing difficult events in life. For example, they may provide opportunities for managing conflicts while working together to come up with tailored solutions that meet your requirements. Also, these services often give you the chance to express your grievances and feelings without fear of judgment or retribution.
From Mission to Services and Foundational Benefits
The benefits of mediation, counselling, and support services don’t stop there— they may also help reduce litigation costs and time spent in court. Online Mediation can help to bring disputing parties together almost regardless of time and place. Also, this is especially true when dealing with relationship-related issues such as job allocation and time management at home and work. Furthermore, these services might provide education and support for all parties involved. For instance, mediation sessions may help you understand each other’s perspective to find an amicable solution that works for all of you. These services can provide guidance from a more objective standpoint while still considering the unique circumstances of each situation.
From Mission to Services: Viewing Mediation, Counselling, and Support through a Hermeneutic Perspective.
Mediation, counselling, and support services offer you numerous advantages in managing difficult times in life. These service advantages range, for example, from suggestions as to how to manage conflicts to reducing litigation costs and offering education and support to all involved parties.
Various scholars, including Cohen (2000), Rentel (1997), Taylor (2013), and van Manen (2016), have investigated the foundational concepts that inform hermeneutics, as well as the methods for understanding and conveying religious, philosophical, and legal texts. Our spoken traditions and reminiscences serve as a way to acknowledge our capabilities, commemorate important milestones in our lives, and facilitate positive connections with both ourselves and those around us. Embracing this perspective could potentially shape our life’s mission.
Organising the rich tapestry of life stories may be achieved through creative works, both online and physical, as highlighted by Carlson (2024). These works may be discovered in places such as museums. Narratives shape and influence both our personal and social identities, facilitating our experiences. One way to interpret the significance of life’s narratives is by applying a hermeneutic approach.
Mediation: Facilitating Win/Win
Before, during and after sessions, you have enhanced opportunities for:
- Becoming aware of policy-informed models;
- Brainstorming definitional boundaries and alternatives;
- Critical thinking;
- Enacting individual and socially transformative potential;
- Exploring decisions;
- Focusing on needs and realities;
- Identifying narratives;
- Increasing compassion and strengths;
- Moving beyond positions to interests;
- Recognising or summoning your courage to take risks while generating choices; and,
- Reevaluating conflict analysis.
Counselling: A Compassionate Guide
As you prepare, participate and reflect on sessions, you have circumstances for:
- Co-rewriting life scripts and social roles;
- By the same token creating options;
- Exploring biological, psychological and social needs and triggers;
- Identifying strategic and solutions-centred perspectives;
- Reflective learning is often equally important; and,
- Revisiting personal and social conversations to separate the person from their questionable behaviours.
Creative Services and the Arts
Your fantasies can have creative merit! Through the arts and aesthetics, perceptions and lived experiences that stem from the unconscious may be identified, acknowledged and addressed. Photography is an example of the digital and visual arts; artistic expression is part of being human.
Analytical psychologist Carl Gustav wrote in “Memories, Dreams and Reflections” about his time during 1918-1919 at the Chateau d’Oex in Switzerland. Here he drew daily in a notebook. An “aesthetic lady” told Jung that the “…fantasies arising from my unconscious had artistic value and could be with the help of these drawings I could observe my psychic transformations from day to day” (page 220).
Your emotions and cognitions vary; the arts could be another way to identify and release inner tensions and challenges. For example, sometimes you better manage an obstacle or a need if you are consciously aware of this. Overall, Jung created and enjoyed reflecting on others’ artworks. Drawings continue today; perhaps modern-day equivalents are the digital and visual arts. Furthermore we can support you in actively drawing on these arts:
- Adding to your therapeutic techniques and strategies;
- At the same time embracing your inner child;
- Identifying functional and questionable personal and social patterns;
- Increasing conscious awareness of your inner physical, cognitive and psychological processes.;
- Recognising implicit symmetry and form, even your fantasies appear at first to be chaotic; and,
- Utilising the arts and aesthetics, meditation, or counseling to alleviate or avert life challenges may not be appropriate for everyone; there are limited universal solutions.
From Mission to Services: Guiding Principles
We customise guiding policies and practices to your contexts and adapt them to meet your needs and situations. After exploring your needs, we work with you to create an action plan to enhance your:
- Personal and social development
- Rights
- Stamina
Our not-for-profit organisations respect your inherent dignity and offer support such as:
- Counselling
- Customised supports incorporating the arts
- Mediation
- Cognitive behavioural
- Positive-centred
- Psychosocial
- Reality-based
- Solution-oriented.
In addition supports are multifactorial and assist you as you continue the unexplored journey of self and society. Change can happen at multiple entry points throughout the human lifecycle. Analytical psychology has been criticised for lacking substantial and immediate change momentum (See, i.e. John Watson and B.F. Skinner). However, post-Jungians continue to refine what is a significant force in interdisciplinary practice and theory. You may benefit from structures and processes customised to your situation in interacting with others and the environment. We value returning visitors and are excited to greet you if you are new to our services.
We offer services based on your particular needs and situations to support your quality of life. Familiarise yourself with our service options available to help navigate and overcome life challenges, gaining insight into the diverse advantages they offer. This would enable you to make a well-informed decision regarding the most appropriate option for your current situation. Engage in personal and social care while acknowledging that you possess the potential for meaningful impact.
From Mission to Services: Caveats
Venture forth and remember to chose an option often with its own benefits and drawbacks. Also build a foundational understanding of the similarities and the differences between these services. Next, you can be better placed to choose which type of service best meets your situation, considering factors such as cost-effectiveness and timeliness. However we do not provide medical or legal advice. For this advice, please consult a physician or lawyer.
Some people face disproportionate challenges and require specific and customised services. We support you based on your unique needs and situation. Set up an initial free telephone-based consultation by phoning us or filling out the contact form. Please do not provide financial information; we do not reply to Spam or provide legal advice.
In summary, choosing the right type of service to fit your needs is a critical component in optimising your capacity and potential. Think about what kind of help would be useful and what outcomes you aspire to accomplish. Eventually once you have identified these criteria, then you can have an entry point to exploring service options to meet your requirements.
We strive to create an inclusive environment for perspective transformation and optimal health through our mission and services. This webpage reflects our dedication to bridging the gap between our mission and service delivery. Transcend barriers and optimise your health!
