Sal, Licensed Therapist.

“Sometimes all we really want and need is someone to listen to us, let us to feel our pain, be heard, and allow us to be human. Cherly Richardson once said, “People start to heal the moment they feel heard.” I believe that creating a safe space to be your true self without judgment is essential to healing and growing.”

To reduce stigma around mental health, you can:
Use respectful language: Avoid words like “disturbed” “crazy” or “insane” and instead use “people with a mental illness”.
Talk openly about mental health: Share your own experiences or encourage others to share theirs.
Educate yourself and others: Respond to negative comments with facts and experiences.
