I take pride in this achievement and the high standard of training and expertise it offers to individuals grappling with this challenging mental health condition. If you or someone you know is dealing with OCD or suspects they may be, help is within reach. Obsessions can often be accompanied by feelings of shame and fear, but a skilled clinician understands that you are not defined by your obsessions. They can provide normalization, validation, and support on the journey towards recovery.

Mental health matters!

👉Here are some facts:

▶Depression is a common illness affecting over 5% of adults across the world.
▶And, did you know our mental and physical health are interlinked; for instance, cardiovascular disease can result in depression and vice versa.
▶+ People with severe mental health conditions are more likely to die earlier than the general population, often due to preventable physical illnesses.

Let's give physical and mental health equal priority.

Learn more about creating safety for those around us following prolonged experiences of trauma in the Traumatic Stress Studies Certificate program.
