Empower Mental Health, LLC

About

Empower Mental Health LLC was created to teach Mental Health Literacy and challenge the status quo as it relates to Mental Health and Wellness. We offer educational presentations, an Optimize Mental Wellness workshop, and teach Mental Health First Aid courses. With one individual taking their own life every 11 minutes in our country, we need to normalize mental health conversation and education. Being aware of both protective and risk factors for mental illness is imperative. Identifying early symptoms of Anxiety, Depression, Panic attacks, Suicide, and Psychosis leads to early intervention and often minimizes secondary loss factors. Learning how to talk to someone who is displaying symptoms of poor mental health or in crisis is essential both at home and in the workplace. Knowing how to connect to the vast array of assessment tools, phone lines, and resources is instrumental in the road to mental wellness and recovery. Exploring how to care for yourself and others decreases stress and creates pathways to building resilience. Developing skills through interactive group activities and worksheets leads to enhanced coping strategies and confidence to engage in them. We believe in giving Mental Health the same rights and authority as Physical Health. We believe in building community one person at a time; teaching mental health literacy to decrease stigma, invite understanding, and facilitate optimal wellbeing for all.
