About Us & Our Mission

About us

Welcome to Calm Connection, a non-profit organization based in South Africa committed to supporting individuals facing the challenges of anxiety.
Anxiety, whether general or social, can be isolating and overwhelming. At Calm Connection, we strive to help individuals overcome these challenges by fostering a sense of community, providing educational resources, and offering support.

Vision

We dream of a world where anyone suffering from anxiety can easily access affordable therapy, find immediate support from a caring community, and connect with people across the globe who understand their struggles. Our vision is to create a global network of support where no one has to face anxiety alone.

Mission

Our mission is to support individuals on their journey to mental well-being through:

• Providing Anxiety Counseling: Offering access to affordable and effective therapy to help individuals manage and overcome anxiety.

• Facilitating Self-Help Groups: Creating and supporting self-help groups where people can share their experiences and find strength in community.

• Delivering Educational Resources: Equipping individuals with the knowledge and tools they need to understand and manage their anxiety, empowering them to build a life they love.

Our Communities

We have established two supportive communities tailored to meet the unique needs of those experiencing anxiety:

• Calm Connection: A community dedicated to supporting individuals dealing with general anxiety. It offers a space for members to connect, share experiences, and find solace in the understanding and support of others.

• SocialEase: Specifically designed for those grappling with social anxiety, SocialEase provides a safe and encouraging environment where members can build social confidence, share their struggles, and support one another in overcoming the challenges of social situations.

What We Offer

At Calm Connection, we believe in the power of connection, education, and community. To that end, we offer:

• Monthly Free Meetings: Both Calm Connection and SocialEase host one free meeting every month. These gatherings provide an opportunity for members to come together, share their experiences, and receive support from peers in a welcoming environment.

• Educational Resources: We provide a variety of educational resources to help individuals understand and manage their anxiety. From informative articles and guides to interactive workshops and webinars, our resources are designed to empower you with the knowledge and tools needed to take control of your mental health.
