Our approach
How we work
Each member of our team brings their own knowledge, experience and commitment, enhanced through a variety of individual training and development opportunities.
Consistency through teamwork
Working closely together allows the team to support each other and provide a high level of consistency, so we can achieve the best results possible for the people we support.
Every member of staff at Inner Resources embodies the three core conditions of the person-centred approach to creating helping relationships with others.
01
Unconditional positive regard
Non-judgmental acceptance and caring.
02
Empathy
Understanding, sensitivity and active listening without a personal agenda.
03
Congruence
Genuineness, realness, honesty and transparency: demonstrating, through our actions and what we say, our commitment to meeting the needs of the person.
The journey
From crisis towards independence
Our work with each person moves through three stages.
01
Intervention
Our initial focus when asked to work with a person is to develop an empowering and trusting relationship with them. This relationship becomes the foundation for further work.
02
Stability
The success and quality of this relationship gives the person the opportunity to engage with new learning and behaviours, and to become more aware of their own potential. It creates a platform for building self-esteem, positive belief and an attitude of hope, and for progress in behaviour management, social skills, communication with others, practical living skills and confidence.
03
Towards living
The person begins to move away from the problematic aspects of their past and to embrace their differentness in a positive and purposeful way. Experiences of failure, resignation, isolation and dependence give way to action, achievement, engagement and independence.
