Recruit For Spouses Wellbeing Programme: Free online places available.
There are a limited number of places available on a free wellbeing programme tailored to military spouses and partners. Held online and over three live sessions – you’ll need to be able to attend all three in order to secure your place:
28th September, 5th October, 12th October, 9:30–11:30am (UK time)
My name's Kat Cuthbert, and I am the new facilitator for the RFS Wellbeing Programme.
Earlier this year I had the opportunity to redevelop the programme, to make sure it is even more tailored to military spouses and partners than ever before.
As a psychotherapist and a military spouse, I passionately draw on lived experience to really understand the path we're living as spouses and partners in military families. This has been written across the new programme materials and content, so you are getting a completely refreshed programme.
I'm trauma specialist, and am qualified to hold this space for you. What we do together is psycho-educational, practical, and built entirely around this specific life of ours - military life.
Most spouses and partners I meet are running on go-go-go. Head up, no time to worry, always focusing on the next thing on the to-do list. It's how we cope with a life where so much is decided for us.
But pushing feelings down is like holding a beach ball underwater. The harder you push, the harder it springs back up. Rumination and isolation grow in the silence, and most of us don't have the words for what we're carrying, because we've never had the space to stop and ask.
That's what this programme is for. You'll learn to:
Regulate a nervous system that's been on high alert for years, with tools chosen for you, not a one-size-fits-all script
Name what you're feeling, from emotional isolation to the strain of deployments, so you can finally do something about it
Set boundaries and properly ask for support
Feel understood from the first session, live and online, alongside 19 others who already get it
One spouse from a previous cohort said: "This programme is brilliant in helping you deal with the coping methods and boundaries to protect yourself, and effectively communicate what you need and why."
