World Mental Health Day 2025 (October 10) focuses on “Access to Services: Mental Health in Catastrophes and Emergencies.” This year’s theme underscores the importance of ensuring that individuals affected by conflict, disaster, and displacement receive the mental health and psychosocial support they need.

If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available:
• 988 Su***de and Crisis Lifeline: Call or text 988 for 24/7 free, confidential support.
• SAMHSA Treatment Locator: findtreatment.gov — Find local mental health and substance use services.
• National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Helpline: 1-800-950-NAMI (6264) or text “HELPLINE” to 62640 for information and resources.

Taking care of your mental health isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity. Let’s work together to make mental health care accessible for everyone, everywhere.

Congratulations to Kristy Jones, LPCC, on earning her Emergency Responder and Public Safety Clinician Certification!

Kristy specializes in the treatment of trauma and grief, and this certification required not only extensive coursework, testing, and study, but also realworld experience alongside first responders. She had the privilege of working directly with paramedics from the Life Support Team, as well as officers from the Medina Police Department (Ohio) and firefighters from the Medina Fire Dept.

Kristy’s passion is supporting the brave men and women who run toward danger when others run away, and she is dedicated to making it her mission to serve them with the highest level of therapeutic care.

How are you feeling today in this moment?

Grace, an LPC, educates children on emotional intelligence to enhance their ability to express their needs more effectively.
Sometimes we as adults struggle to understand our emotions.

Three questions to ask:
1.) How do I feel?
2.) How strong is the feeling?
0-10 scale
3.) What would make it better?
