Growth doesn’t mean forgetting who you were. It means honouring every version of yourself, the one that survived, the one that learned, and the one that’s still becoming. 🌿 Both nostalgia and evolution can exist at once, allow yourself to hold space for both.

05/11/2025

You don’t have to have it all together to deserve love and peace.
You are enough, even in your quiet, messy, in-progress moments. 💛

November is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month. Too often, men are told to “man up” or “stay strong.” But real strength is found in honesty, vulnerability, and speaking up.

This Men’s Mental Health Month, let’s break the silence.
Reach out. Check in. Listen without judgment.
Because no one should carry the weight of the world alone. 🌿

What a privilege it is to have loved someone so deeply that their absence still rearranges our whole world. What a privilege to carry memories sharp enough to break us and beautiful enough to save us. What a privilege to feel a missing this heavy, because it means we had something worth missing. 🤍

Grief is brutal beyond comprehension. It’s pain that no words can ever truly reach. But it’s also proof. Proof that we got to experience a love so rare it refuses to die. Proof that our hearts were brave enough to open, even knowing how fragile life can be.

So let me try something. If you’re hurting today, maybe this tiny reframe can help you heal, even if it’s the smallest amount: the ache isn’t punishment. It’s love, refusing to be forgotten. It’s the shadow of something extraordinary.

If you or someone you know is struggling, reach out.

October reminds us of two powerful truths:
🌿 Your mental health matters.
🎗️ Your physical health does too.

This month, as we honour World Mental Health Awareness Month and Breast Cancer Awareness Month, may this serve as a gentle reminder that you are worthy of care, love, and belonging exactly as you are. You don’t have to be “fixed” to deserve support. You don’t have to be strong all the time to be seen.

At Evexia, we provide a safe and compassionate space for healing where you can show up as yourself, and we’ll meet you there. 💫

If you or someone you know could use support, reach out.

Today is World Trauma Day. A day to acknowledge the deep impact that traumatic experiences can leave on individuals, yet also to honour the possibility of healing.

If you carry trauma that still echoes in your thoughts, emotions, or relationships, you don’t have to face it alone. Contact us.

Our Story

EVEXIA LICENCED COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH DAY HOSPITALS ARE THE FIRST MENTAL HEALTH DAY HOSPITALS IN SOUTH AFRICA. This thoughtful name was chosen by founder Winston Schoeman and means WELLNESS in Greek. Winston is passionate about introducing a more appropriate level of mental health care. That is a level of mental health care that is more containing than existing Primary Care (once in a while consultations with Medical Practitioners and Psychologists). It is also a level that is less disruptive than existing Tertiary Care, like admission to overnight psychiatric hospitals, often for extended stay.

EVEXIA is a convenient DAY HOSPITAL that is :

Staffed by a carefully selected multi-disciplinary team who shares Winston’s passion and vision.

Covered by in-hospital Medical Scheme benefits.

EVEXIA is for everybody and anybody from all walks of life, from 18 to 118 who is not feeling well. Our team offers help on every level of daily living and health, healthy eating, social issues, psychology and psychiatry.

EVEXIA is ready for you:

If you are feeling overwhelmed by your feelings, thoughts and daily living;

If you are angry and irritable, in what feels like an unreasonable way;

If you are feeling trapped by anxiety and fear that may even lead to debilitating panic;

If you have no energy for anything and feel withdrawn, despondent, detached, lonely, alienated or displaced;

If you sometimes feel it is all too much and you would rather not carry on living. Even act out on this feeling by harming yourself;

If you have experienced loss, trauma, major changes, stress, or a variety of life events that you struggle to deal with;

If you are thoroughly confused, don’t know what to do and maybe conflicting input from various health professionals make you feel worse.

EVEXIA will do a full assessment for you, although we do not focus on diagnosis or where you have been before.

EVEXIA offers a thorough intervention and full containment NOW.

EVEXIA will help you understand yourself better and will, together with you, work out a way to continue when you leave.

Call us-- we are looking forward to assisting you.

OUR STORY PART 2... At the end of OUR STORY PART 1, we invited you to call EVEXIA. We got many calls and questions about how we work, duration of treatment and more. Here are some answers to the most asked questions:

1) We have not invented new psychology. We use an evidence- based tried and tested psychodynamic method. The only unconventional aspect of Evexia is that we were the first to offer these particular mental health day hospitals in South Africa.

2) At Evexia we aim to help everyone to BE, rather than to behave and achieve. We want to help you figure out what you want, what you feel, what you need and what you think, and not to live a life of pleasing others. This takes time, which is why we run our programs the way we do.

3) The multi-disciplinary team (MDT) consists of psychologists, psychiatrists, occupational therapists, registered nurses, social workers, dietitians, and trauma facilitators.

4) The program runs every weekday from 07h30 to 16h00.

5) Mondays start with a full assessment consisting of psychometric testing, interviews and a consultation interview with our psychiatrist and psychologists. This is followed by an multi-disciplinary team meeting to decide if Evexia’s standard program is suitable for you; if we should adapt a program for you; or refer you to a different facility.

6) The program consists of the following components: ⸎ Psycho-education groups facilitated by a psychiatrist. ⸎ Wellness and life skills groups facilitated by occupational therapists, social workers and dietitians. ⸎ Psychotherapy group facilitated by a psychologist.

7) The MDT collaborates throughout the treatment / intervention process so that we can offer you the best holistic care.

At the end of each week at Evexia, either of the following options will be recommended to you: ⸎ To follow up with your referrer, if applicable. ⸎ Referral to a practitioner most suitable to you. ⸎ Re-admission to Evexia for an additional week. ⸎ Attendance of Evexia integrated care program, two group sessions a week and other treatments.

9) All group members are expected to maintain the confidentiality of other group members.

10) Once you have been with us, we will keep your file and you will always be welcome to return.

QUERIES & REFERRALS Service users can be referred by any health professional, friends or family and self-referring is welcomed. All contact with Evexia is treated confidentially and we will not discuss your story with anyone unless you ask us to help. Our staff is available during office hours from 08h00 to 16h30, to make bookings or answer any further questions you may have.

ADMISSION PROCESS All service users will be assessed by the MDT, and specifically by a psychiatrist, before admission will be confirmed. When you contact Evexia we will require relevant information to pre-approve payment with your medical scheme if you are using one. Self-payment is also possible. Evexia is not an overnight facility, nor an emergency facility.
