Our Work

At the heart of our work is a commitment to trauma-informed care and accessible counselling, guided by our founder, Mrs. Bridget Itsueli, a veteran counsellor with 40+ years’ experience.

Our counselling services provide the critical safe space for processing pain and building emotional strength. We build upon this foundation with essential skill-building programs designed to foster empowerment, independence, and lasting well-being.

Counselling Services

We provide Professional counselling for individuals, couples, and families navigating grief, trauma, marital conflict, and stress.

  • For Individuals: Address the weight of anxiety, depression, past trauma, and significant life transitions. We provide tools for emotional regulation, developing healthier thought patterns, and rebuilding a sense of self.

  • For Couples: Move from gridlocked conflict and disconnection to renewed intimacy and understanding. We focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and creating a shared vision for your relationship.

Financial & Leadership Training

We offer workshops merging money management with resilience tools to reduce financial anxiety and build long-term security.

  • Peer-Support Model: Connect with others who genuinely understand your struggle, reducing feelings of shame and loneliness. This mutual support fosters a unique accountability and encouragement that is foundational to recovery.

  • Storytelling & Narrative Shift: By sharing our personal journeys in a guided setting, we reframe our challenges, recognize our resilience, and normalize the human experience of pain and growth.

Community Healing Labs

Our peer-support and storytelling spaces that normalize struggles, restore dignity, and spark practical solutions.

  • Practical Money Management: Learn the fundamentals of budgeting, debt reduction, saving, and responsible investing. We break down complex financial concepts into simple, manageable steps tailored to your income level.

  • Reducing Financial Anxiety: Address the fear, shame, and stress surrounding money through mindfulness techniques and cognitive-behavioral strategies. Understand your “money story” to break free from cycles of anxiety and make empowered decisions.

Relate Africa Academy for Counselling Sciences

Our counselling academy is a hybrid institute for individuals already engaged in informal counselling (faith leaders, teachers, community guides) as well as those seeking professional pathways.

The curriculum covers Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, trauma-informed practice, and practical counselling techniques. Graduates are equipped to deliver structured, empathetic, and culturally attuned care.
