It is organised into six modules: (F1) Personal Satisfaction; (F2) Prosocial Attitude; (F3) Self-control; (F4) Autonomy; (F5) Problem-solving and Self-actualisation; and (F6) Interpersonal Relationship Skills. Each module is delivered through three sequential sessions (A, B and C).

In addition to the modular sessions, the programme includes two initial sessions, an introductory session (group or individual) and a first individual session, and two final sessions, consisting of a final assessment session and an individual follow-up session conducted between 3 and 6 months after programme completion. Participants are grouped according to the same module to be addressed.
