Invitation to register on the database of service providers for the life coaching unit for the 2026/27 financial year. The Chrysalis Academy invites qualified professionals to register on our Life Coaching Database for the 2026/27 financial year. As an organization committed to empowering young people, we offer a holistic, trauma-informed, and healing-centred three-month residential programme for youth aged 18 to 25.

Our programme focuses on personal mastery, leadership, skills development, and community engagement, providing a safe and supportive environment for growth. We serve unemployed youth from the Western Cape, primarily speaking Afrikaans, English, and isi Xhosa. Recognizing the impact of trauma and the increasing need for mental health and psychosocial support, our Life Coaching Unit provides counselling, support groups, and therapeutic care.

These include Trauma Release Exercises (TRE®), Yoga, Mindfulness, Meditation, and Nature-based processes, all aimed at deepening students’ resilience. As the Academy has a strong focus on group work, individual counselling services will be limited, as we believe that healing happens in community. To strengthen this critical area, we engage additional psychosocial professionals on a sessional basis to support our work.
