PSMP - Positive Self-Management Programme
One of the first steps for those who join Living Well is the
Positive Self-Management Programme, better known as the PSMP.
The PSMP is run by trained facilitators, some of whom are living
with HIV themselves, and consists of seven weekly sessions of
two and a half hours each and an optional residential weekend.
Some of the areas covered include:
Goal setting
Action planning
Problem solving
Coping Skills
Support and information
Planning for the future
The PSMP is delivered in a supportive group environment. Through
discussion and sharing of information participants are
encouraged to attain new skills and direction to help them make
better informed decision about managing their condition.
The PSMP allows participants to meet other people
facing similar concerns and challenges, helping them to
overcome isolation and build a supportive social network.
