Hello beautiful people and Happy Village Mentality Wednesday!!
In this week's episode, I'll be talking about Culture Identity in Mental Health. Our culture, beliefs, sexual identity, values, race, and language all affect how we perceive and experience mental health conditions. In fact, cultural differences can influence what treatments. coping mechanisms and supports work best for us. It is therefore essential for culture and identity to be part of the conversation as we discuss both mental health and mental health care. Let's learn together how important it is for mental health professionals to understand one's identity in allowing them to be comfortable to address it.
In my segment, "Let's Talk About It," June is PTSD Awareness Month! I will be sharing some self-care tips that can help to alleviate symptoms for people with PTSD. Also, check out who I'll be highlighting for Black History Wednesday.
As always, there will be plenty of music from my musical jukebox! So sit back, relax and enjoy the show!
