Your Independence
Independence – A Small Word with Profound Depth. At First Glance, It Might Seem Like Something We Take for Granted, But in Reality, the Journey toward True Independence is Intricate and Deeply Personal. Take a Moment to Reflect: Imagine Having the Genuine Ability to Make Your Own Choices, to Understand Precisely When to Pause and When to Press Forward, to Select the Treatment That Resonates Most with Your Heart, and to Compassionately Steer Your Financial Path. Sounds Simple. Yet, When We Gently Peel Back the Layers, We Discover a Tender Truth – Most of Us Are Still Navigating the Delicate Landscape of True, Holistic Independence
This is why we are here. We believe that everyone deserves true independence. We accompany, support, and empower you on your journey to achieving your independence
Your Health
Let's start with the fact that you are healthy! Let's see together how we can maintain your health, protect you, and at the same time make space for existing side effects, for the many troubling questions, for the uncertainty. We'll try to provide an answer for the entire support system. We understand how important it is to feel good in your body after everything you've been through. Your health is the key to a good quality of life, and we are here to help you maintain it
Your Emotional Health
Your Emotional Health, which had to function during not-so-simple days, your Soul that found no rest, needs time to heal, time to process what you've been through. Sometimes the difficulty arrives precisely afterward, sometimes it feels like no one understands, anxiety overwhelms, identity shifts. Shina Association will try to provide you with the tools, the time, and the attention to understand what the need is and how we can help.
We are happy about the wonderful collaboration with the Sahar Association, where you can receive immediate, accessible and anonymous psychological assistance for all types of mental distress via chat by a professional team at any time and in any moment (24/7)
