Why take this course?

Psychosocial Recovery Coach Team Leaders have a tough, dynamic and rewarding role. They’ve got the double whammy: team leadership and direct client work (not to mention the pressure of juggling both). 

But what many don’t realise? The unique role of a Psychosocial Recovery Coach also lends itself to leadership. Focussing on capacity building and supporting emotional wellbeing, there are loads of parallels between the two. 

This 5 hour workshop (ran over two days), Team Leadership for Psychosocial Recovery Coaches, is all about uncovering these parallels. We’ll focus on enhancing your leadership skills, all while drawing on the skills you already have (we’re talking capacity building, listening, connecting, sharing lived experience – the list goes on). Our goal? To inspire Psychosocial Recovery Coach Team Leaders to foster a safe and effective workplace, be present for your clients AND team, and look after yourself in the process. You’ll leave saying “I’ve got this.”

Antigone Hanna

Antigone has been involved in the world of NDIS since 2019, initially as a Support Coordinator, and more recently as a Psychosocial Recovery Coach. Originally from Adelaide, she is currently based in the UK, with plans to move to Spain.

What she loves most about Support Coordination and Recovery Coaching is seeing the people she works with have confidence in their decision-making. Through her passion for seeing people take control of their NDIS journey, she has been driven to fill her head with as much NDIS know-how as possible. Her utmost ambition as a team leader has been to make sure her team knows how capable they are, and really believe in the skills they bring to the table.

Through her learnt experience as a social worker, as well as her own lived experience of recovery so far, she has come to believe in the therapeutic power of relationships, and of being able to tell our stories in our own words.

In her spare time, Antigone enjoys painting, hiking, and patting other people's dogs until she can get one of her own!
