Peer support through gaming, creativity, and connection
GamePeer support through gaming, creativity, and connection
Peer support doesn't always have to mean sitting down and talking about mental health. Sometimes it's easier to connect while we're doing something together! These sessions combine peer support with gaming, creative activities, and other shared experiences. We can simply enjoy an activity together or use it to explore things like communication, relationships, boundaries, identity, and personal growth. Activities are chosen together based on your interests, comfort level, available technology, and session length. Options may include online games, collaborative storytelling, drawing, creative projects, or other shared activities. You're always welcome to request a specific activity before booking. Some activities may require access to a free website or app, but additional purchases are never required unless we've discussed and agreed to them beforehand.

About The Host
Hi! I'm Cassian, a Certified Peer Support Specialist and the person behind Cassian Peer Support. I've spent a lot of my life being the person people turn to for support. Whether I'm spending time with friends, participating in activities, or just getting to know someone, I've always found myself naturally taking on that role. Over time, I've realized that some of the most meaningful opportunities for connection and support don't necessarily happen when we're sitting down specifically to talk about mental health. Sometimes they happen while we're playing a game, creating something together, learning something new, or just enjoying a shared experience. That's the idea behind Cassian Peer Support. I provide activity-based peer support through gaming, creative activities, and shared experiences. Some of my groups focus on building community and enjoying ourselves, while others use activities to explore communication, relationships, boundaries, identity, and personal growth. While I welcome people with a wide range of experiences, I'm particularly passionate about supporting neurodivergent individuals and people living with OCD or Cluster B personality disorders, including borderline, narcissistic, histrionic, and antisocial personality disorders. These are communities that often experience significant misunderstanding and stigma, including within mental health spaces. I want to create opportunities for people to connect, explore their experiences, and participate in supportive environments without feeling like their diagnoses define who they are. My approach is informed by my own lived experiences with mental health and neurodivergence, as well as my professional experience providing peer support. I also offer individual peer support for people who prefer one-on-one connection, whether that's through conversation, a shared activity, or a combination of both. I don't believe support always has to look a certain way. You shouldn't have to spend every moment talking about your struggles to find connection, community, or something meaningful. Sometimes we can just enjoy ourselves, and that's valuable too.
