Stigmas of Mental Health: Mental Health Awareness Month - May Learning Series

Mental Health Awareness Month

In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, we are focusing on raising awareness and educating the public about mental health conditions. We will start with a basic understanding of the various domains of wellness in a two-part session. The Seven Domains of Wellness is a program developed by Dr. Nadine Burke Harris and the Center for Youth Wellness (CYW). This organization is working to establish standard treatment protocols to improve the health of children and adolescents exposed to Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), recognizing that there are many ways to reduce the negative impacts of stress.

We will then hear from two of our Outpatient Therapists on the stigmas of Mental Health. They will include a perspective on how diagnoses can impact child abuse investigations.

Objectives:

• Understand the need for and ethics of self-care at an individual and organizational level
• Explore the various domains of self-care
• Learn about the stigmas surrounding mental health

Guest Speakers:

Nichole Knepp MSEd, NCC, LPC, QMHP, SW, LPC-MH Supervisee
