Since 2004 we have been working with children, youth and adults offering
our workshops and therapeutic sessions. In this time we have carefully woven a
network of skilled professionals, social institutions and
communities in need. We have launched successful pilot-projects cultivating
valuable relationships. Now the demands on our services have grown to such an
extent that we are sending out a call for support to the international
community.
Maitriperu - a dream
became true
People of limited financial resources from both rural and urban areas
take part in workshops and sessions of diverse therapies which allow them to
develop internal resources that empower them. This strengthens their cultural
heritage, self-knowledge, self-esteem and self-care, enabling them to better
relate to themselves, others and the environment.
Maitriperu also offers art workshops that provide
participants with opportunities to develop their artistic potential. This can
generate individual and collective income which in turn supports and nurtures
the artistic and therapeutic experience.
Therapists and healers from different areas share their knowledge and
gifts with the people who attend Maitriperu, finding a space for the exchange
and enrichment of various therapeutic approaches, methods and techniques,
everyone benefiting from these experiences and intercultural processes.
Goals, Objectives and Activities
MaitriPeru is a civil association that seeks to optimize people’s
quality of life, harmonizing physical and psychological aspects through the
creation of individual and group therapies, within a perspective of growth and
human development.
We offer our workshops and therapy services to diverse individual
clients as well as public and private institutions in different areas of Peru
and Latin America.
Since 2004 our work to support these communities has been made possible
through the generosity of volunteers as well as therapists providing their
services at minimal rates.
MaitriPeru is now seeking support from individuals and friendly institutions
through international solidarity circles who actively participate.
Volunteering, basic materials and donations are needed.
Through this initiative we are responding to the growing demand for
therapeutic services within these communities. Developing resources and
personal tools to better face the diverse problems, both personal and social,
is of growing interest to these community members. Honoring their motivation to
heal and consciously evolve is MaitriPeru’s main goal.
At present we are carrying out Community Services mostly in rural and
urban areas of Cuzco and Lima. We are working with children, youth, teenage
mothers and women at risk in cooperation with foster parents, teachers and health
care workers.
Our services include: psycho-corporal therapies, psychotherapy, workshops
in somatic education, art therapy and other healing techniques.
