🌍 World Mental Health Day 💚

Today, we shine a light on mental health — a vital part of our overall wellbeing.
Let’s take a moment to reflect, reach out, and remind ourselves that it’s okay not to be okay.

Whether it’s through listening, supporting, or simply checking in, small acts of kindness can make a big difference.
Together, we can help create a culture where mental health is valued and supported — for everyone, every day. 💬🤝

🧠 July is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month 🧠

Mental health matters for everyone — but not everyone gets the same support. Many minority communities still face stigma, cultural barriers, and less access to care.

This month, let’s break the silence, show support, and push for mental health care that includes everyone.

💬 Talk about it. Share resources. Be kind.
Because mental health is health. 💛

🌿 Anxiety Awareness Day 🌿

Anxiety affects many of us but is often misunderstood. It’s a natural response to stress, not a weakness.

If anxiety feels overwhelming, remember you’re not alone. Simple steps like mindful breathing, self-compassion, and seeking support can make a difference.

Let’s raise awareness and break the stigma around anxiety together. 💙

💙 June is Men’s Mental Health Month 💙

Men are often told to stay strong by staying silent—but real strength is in speaking up.

As a therapist, I see how much can change when men are given space to express, feel, and heal. This month, let’s break the stigma and remind the men in our lives: it’s okay to not be okay.

🧠💔 National Trauma Awareness Month 💔🧠

Today is a day to pause, reflect, and raise awareness about the deep and lasting impact trauma can have on individuals, families, and communities. Trauma isn’t always visible—it lives in the body, in memories, and in the silent struggles many face every day.

To anyone who is healing from trauma: I honour your strength. You are not alone. 💙

💥 April is National Stress Awareness Month 💥

Stress is something we all experience — it’s part of being human. But when stress becomes constant or overwhelming, it can deeply impact our mental, emotional, and even physical well-being.

As a Gestalt Psychotherapist and forensic psychology practitioner, I see how stress shows up in different forms — tension in the body, racing thoughts, irritability, or even complete shutdown. Often, what’s needed most is a safe space to pause, breathe, and reconnect with ourselves.

✨ This month is an invitation to:
🌀 Notice how stress shows up in your body and life
🌀 Name your stressors without judgment
🌀 Nurture yourself through grounding, movement, or connection
🌀 Seek support — you don’t have to carry it alone

🌱 Awareness is the first step toward change. Let’s use this month to tune in, slow down, and care for ourselves and each other with more intention.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, know that support is available, and healing is possible. One breath, one choice, one moment at a time.

🔹 April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month 🔹

This month, we come together to raise awareness about sexual violence and honour the strength, courage, and resilience of survivors.

As a Gestalt psychotherapist and mental health professional, I witness the profound and lasting impact that sexual assault can have. Healing is possible - with safety, support, and compassion.

Let’s take this month as a reminder to:
💬 Speak openly about consent and boundaries
📚 Educate ourselves and others about prevention
🕊️ Support survivors with empathy and non-judgment
🤝 Create spaces that are safe, inclusive, and trauma-informed

Your voice matters. Your story matters. You are not alone.

If you or someone you know needs support, please reach out. Help is available. 💛

🎥 Adolescents is a powerful series that doesn’t just tell a story—it exposes the raw, often overlooked realities of youth struggling at the margins of society. It sheds light on the impulsivity, defiance, and search for identity that can lead young people into difficult situations.

What struck me most is how the series captures the systemic issues at play. It’s not just about bad choices—it’s about the environments that shape those choices. The lack of guidance, the need for belonging, and the survival instincts that kick in when support systems fail.

Early intervention, therapeutic support, and understanding can change trajectories. Rehabilitation isn’t about excusing behavior—it’s about addressing the why behind it and creating opportunities for real change.
