Register to Be a MATE for someone who needs support...
Rapport for another person is highly important to create a trusting, friendly and open environment. MATES Cafe strive at providing the caller with a MATE to meet with who is of similar age, gender, culture, ethnicity, occupation or lifestyle and who has potentially undergone similar life challenges.
This takes the depth and level of understanding of their crisis to a whole new level as the MATE more likely understands their individual needs and challenges. Being able to better identify with the fears and struggles the person may be facing, will inspire hope and encouragement for them to move forward in a renewed direction.

MATES CAFE FACILITATOR TRAINING
MATES Cafe Facilitators are being the change as they are trained to empower their own lives,
so they can be there for others in a time of need.
so they can be there for others in a time of need.
Here's what we have in store for you.
MATES Cafe Member: Meet people just like you who want to be the best version of themselves and help others along the way. Share your stories, experiences, ideas and your wisdom and inspire and be inspired by your MATES. Access advanced learnings in emotional awareness, relationship empowerment and take your brain performance to a whole new level of clarity and creative potential.
MATES Cafe Level 1 Practitioner Training: This is the next step in your journey and a essential part of your training that will empower your own relationships and life so you can help others from a place of strength and insight. You will be trained through Level 1 of the Emotional Reset Technique (See More Here) where you will experience first-hand how being in charge of your emotional world is the key to optimum brain performance and a life of enjoyment, excitement and fun.
MATES Cafe Group Moderator: After completing Practitioner Training you might like to help us manage a group on the MATES Cafe Online Community Network. There will be a number of groups that will grow in size and diversity and we will need Moderators from all over the world to constantly be there for support, guidance, compliance and to engage with other members. Introducing and looking after new members is a priority, maybe even taking them on a tour.
MATES Cafe Level 2 Facilitator Training: Share the skills and techniques to develop meaningful connections with those around you so you can create trusting and supportive environments. We will support you every step of the way and provide a private group on our MATES Cafe Online Community Network where you can share your experiences and receive ongoing support and encouragement and take your understanding of ERT from a practitioner level to helping support and transform the lives of others. Facilitators will report directly to MATES Cafe Management when they have concerns or queries, are asked for private or group consultations with other members and in arranging facilitation of meetings in the real world at local cafes or other venues.
MATES Cafe Level 3 Trainer: How cool to be at a level of understanding and applying ERT in your life that you can help train others and be there for them just as your trainers were there (and still are) for you. As many of you are already aware teaching and coaching embeds your learnings deep into your psyche and you reach a new level of commitment and awareness of how you live your life in alignment with the principles of cause and effect. Growth and contribution work hand in hand in that when we give to another from the heart with no expectation of return, we receive endless joy, expansion and wisdom.
MATES Cafe has been developing for over 15 years so there is much we have learnt and experienced that we would like to share with you, so you can make that domino effect in the world. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we grow, change and develop new and more effective ways of helping one another being the best version of themselves and reducing the suffering and increasing the joy in our communities and across the globe. The basic premise of MATES is to be there for others and we need your support in being there for MATES Cafe especially as numbers swell and in keeping our family safe, excited and on purpose.

Register to Be a MATES Cafe Facilitator
MATES have all been through life's journeys, the ups and downs, pulled through challenging times and know how important it is to have a MATE to lean on and be there for them in times of need, including crisis situations.
Many times, our obstacles seem too hard for one person to overcome, and just maybe they are, so we can learn that we are stronger together. |

MATES Will Train You to Be On Call for Someone in Need
MATES Cafe facilitators are trained to be on call for someone in need. Being a good MATE and helping them through a point of crisis in their life. Not about therapy, fixing them or giving advice but simply being there, really hearing them and helping them to find new direction.
|
Worldwide, MATES Cafe are looking for people who want to make a difference in the lives of others undergoing life challenges. We recognise and value your life experience as a strength to draw on.
Things like relationship breakdown, loss and grief, depression, anxiety, drugs or alcohol, gambling, bullying and every other challenge all add to and develop your character, experience and skill sets so you are better equipped in relating to others going through challenging times. MATES Cafe facilitators are the life-blood of our organisation. They do not give advice yet are able to demonstrate by being the change in their own life. |
MATES Cafe is Being the Change
Common Unity - the MATES Organisation is simply about being the change and therefore reaching out to and helping others through being role-models and walking the talk in their community.
We see all belief systems (whatever they might be) as part of a greater collection of understandings towards the greater good. This means that we accept all beliefs, cultures and understandings when the person who advocates this way of thinking, reflects authenticity in their own daily life.
Together we can live in a world that is there for those in need, eliminating isolation and loneliness; the root cause of so much suffering in our community… A real answer to lower the horrific rates of suicide, family violence and depression and create positive role-models for our community and our children... simply by being the change.
