2025 — a year of ups, downs, and everything in between…

From quiet breakthroughs to loud laughter, from challenges that stretched us to moments that healed us; this year has held so much. Through it all, we’ve grown stronger, together.

As Team CAFS looks back with gratitude and forward with hope, we want to thank every heart that walked this journey with us, our clients, the communities we work with, our supporters and well wishers, our colleagues, families and friends.

Wishing all of you a gentle, meaningful season. As the ending of this year is not as easy to some of us, we pray the coming few days bring you peace, and the beginning of the next brings you purpose.

With love,
Team CAFS💛

This season doesn’t have to be big or busy to be meaningful. Sometimes the smallest moments bring the most joy.

However you celebrate, we hope your holidays feel light, warm, and just right for you.

As we wrap up another meaningful year, we want to take a moment to thank each of you for the constant support, kindness, and trust you’ve shown us.
Our team will be taking a short holiday break from 12th December to 6th January to rest, recharge, and return refreshed for 2026.

If you would like to book an appointment for the upcoming year (2026), please use the link below:

As we wrap up for the year, today we held an interesting session on men’s mental health and reaching out for support to a great group of people from one of the corporates we work with. Always a pleasure meeting up with people who are interested in who we are and what we do, to partner and collaborate on supporting both men and women to enhance their mental wellbeing ✨

The CAFS corporate team will be signing off for the year in few weeks, but if you’d like to have us to facilitate a session for your organization surrounding mental health, wellbeing or any other related topic; write to us at [email protected]

We hope that, with the support of Team EMBER,we will be able to work towards the next stage of growth and long-term sustainability.

Today we bid farewell to our last cohort of interns for 2025 ✨ Needless to say, these girls have left a mark in all of our hearts! Three months of pure joy seeing them grow from where they were to where they are today, passionate to learn, eager to give back, curiosity to ask questions, and most of all, empathatic to work with the different communities we engage with…
It’s always refreshing to see budding psychologists, giving their best shot at gaining the maximum out of the experience we’ve thoughtfully curated for them!

Wishing you all the best, girls! Go shine bright ✨

Our founder Dr. Giselle attended a collaborative design workshop earlier last week hosted by CAMHRA, UK, exploring what counts as impact in global mental health, asking critical questions about what it means to be or become a peer, the role of AI in data processing, how learning itself might be recognised as impact, and what a peer-to-peer evaluation model could look like in practice.

Looking forward for some exciting new impactful projects in the coming months!

World Su***de Prevention Day reminds us of something we see every day in our work—many reach out for support when they’re struggling, but stigma still keeps them from receiving the care they truly need. Silence and shame only make recovery harder.

Each of us has a role to play. As family, friends, colleagues, and as a society, we can listen with compassion, create safe spaces, and choose language that heals instead of harms.

✨ Let’s not keep these conversations limited to one day a year. Su***de prevention begins with everyday kindness, awareness, and support.

📞 If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out on these free helplines:

1926 (National Mental Health Helpline)
CCCline: 1333
Sumithrayo: +94 11 2696666
