Here's how you can apply your Peer Support skills to real-world scenarios.

Peer Support skills, like active listening, empathy, and communication, are invaluable. At work, they help resolve conflicts and build strong teams. In mentorship, they empower others to reach their goals. In our communities, they foster belonging and trust. Personal relationships benefit too, as supporting friends and family strengthens bonds. During crises, being a comforting presence helps others navigate tough times. Bringing these skills into everyday life makes our environments more supportive and compassionate.

Meiner Meinung nach ist es essenziell zuzuh?ren um richtiges Feedback geben zu k?nnen, auch ein respektvoller Umgang wird zu einem sp?teren Zeitpunkt das Wir Gefühl st?rken.

Being present to listen is the best help you can offer to someone.Most people just need someone who can listen to them.Speaking to someone can relieve a lot of emotional problems.

In my prior incarnation as a Career and Life Skills Specialist for persons with disabilities, peer support was one of our services. We provided a safe space and a network of people like themselves, inside and outside of our organization. It is amazing what support of others can do to overcome self-doubt and fears. It also helps individuals to realize that they are not alone in their struggles, and others like them have tread these waters before. If they don't have solutions, they can at least provide an empathetic listening ear for them to vent and to use as a sounding-board. Peer support helps to develop goals, create strategies for self-empowerment, and take concrete steps towards building rewarding, self-determined lives.

One valuable lesson I have learned is the importance of nurturing current relationships while also cultivating new ones. My objective has always been to inspire hope and serve as a positive role model for transformation, rather than to compare my journey with others. In my community, we understand that advancing any initiative requires collaboration and diverse perspectives. I am committed to leveraging my strengths to contribute to our collective mission.

Peer, or more specifically "Community" support is what we do at Gleaners Food Bank of Southeast Michigan. We are in the practice of meeting people where they are, treating them with dignity and respect. We try to promote a judgement-free space and the result is one of mutual respect and the pursuit of the collective well-being of our surrounding communities!

Das sehe ich genauso, sofern man sich in gewissen Bereichen gut auskennt kann man diese auch an jemanden hilfreich weitergeben.

Sharing your thoughts and experiences in communities and meetings can help people who are facing the same issues to have a wider view of solutions to their problems.

Hay un lema que dice: "el que vive para servir, sirve para vivir". Y este lema lo he tratado de llevar en mi vida personal y profesional, colaborando de una u otra forma, a través de mis experiencias y conocimientos, muchas veces esperamos realizar algo grande y significativo que marque diferencia en nuestro vivir, pero sin darnos cuenta en cosas tan peque?as y muchas veces insignificantes estamos haciendo algo grande por aquella persona a la que estamos ayudando, el simple hecho de escuchar, de brindar un poco de afecto, el ser empático con alguien es un aporte a la vida de aquella persona, no cambiamos el mundo pero mejoramos el mundo de esa persona a la que le brindamos ayuda.

One thing I have found helpful, is creating my own family environment! I learned this as a musician, growing up around a lot of people with broken homes who had blood relatives that never cared. We all created a nurturing environment of our own? We called ourselves a family & counted on one another & made a great environment. It starts with us!

As a young Psychotherapist getting into the field, the first challenge was resentment to the parents. All efforts were geared towards improving the behavioral challenges of the kids - clients both in school and in community. Sadly, some parents are more needy and challenged with different interests. Parents that become mothers and fathers at the age of 14, 15 or even 13 years old have little to offer, so looking at them as parents or adults create additional problems. However, the parents need the same therapeutic attention like the kids. The holistic approach as undertaken in IOP ( Intensive Outpatient) becomes handy tool - the entire family as a unit need. With this approach in place, the expected shifts become prevalent.

Hugely important and same exact skills apply for family!. To truly embody this with family, we must work for work-life harmony (balance is a myth). We must all remain aware of the potential ‘toll’ peer support can take on the supporters as well and the need to support them so they aren’t exhausted with nothing left for their families.
