Talk to our Counsellors
Our counsellors can guide you in the following areas:
​
-
Psychoeducation
-
Treatment
-
Support and Advocacy
​
Psychoeducation
Psychoeducation refers to the informational part of mental health education. It includes teaching people about the risk factors and symptoms associated with various mental health conditions.
​
Psychoeducation can be tailored for various audiences. For example, employers may need different education than educators or healthcare workers, and children often benefit from specialized, age-appropriate language.
​
Treatment
Comprehensive education also includes understanding the appropriate resources available to people who need support. Treatment is multifaceted, and it may include information about:
​
-
Psychiatrists
-
Individual or family therapy
​
Remember that treatment options vary depending on the specific condition, finances, and individual life circumstances. There is no ultimate, one-size-fits-all solution, and some people need to try several different options before finding the one that works best for their recovery.
Support and Advocacy
Supporting mental health means taking an active interest in treatment, recovery, and individual growth. It also means accepting the condition for what it is instead of clinging to the idea of an impossible cure.
Providing support means:
​
-
Practicing active listening when talking to the other person.
-
Striving to be nonjudgmental and curious about their individual experiences.
-
Finding hope and strength, even if they struggle with these concepts.
-
Setting healthy boundaries that honor your integrity and needs.
​​
Advocacy entails becoming active in recovery efforts. Although our society has made profound efforts in breaking barriers to mental health, we still have a tremendous way to go.
