In a recent SHRM survey, 44% of U.S. employees report feeling burned out and emotionally drained from work. This could look like: 🧑💻 Not being able to "mentally log off" 😓 Feeling too drained from the work week to spend time with loved ones 📆 The dreaded Sunday Scaries If this is something you relate to, make sure to check out our newest blog "Recognizing Burnout and What to Do About It" for tips on preventing and coping with burnout! https://lnkd.in/gBivVTnE

Huge congratulations to Cerebral clinician Mallori Levengood for receiving the Practitioner of the Year award at the 50th annual Arkansas Council for Behavioral Health Institute! 🎉 Mallori is a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who joined the Cerebral team in 2021. She's an advocate for individuals seeking mental health care and loves providing care to her patients: "I knew from a young age that I wanted to follow in my late grandfathers’ footsteps, psychiatrist Dr. William Joseph James. I find purpose in providing care to those with #mentalhealth conditions and hope to be a voice for those who have felt silenced or felt as if they were alone in their fight. I strive to always provide compassionate and empathetic care to help reduce the stigma surrounding mental illness and shine a light to let others know they are not alone. Working with Cerebral clients has provided me with an incredible platform to reach more individuals across many states who are struggling with their mental health and provide them with hope and resources that they can overcome what they are struggling with and that they are not alone." Thank you Mallori for being an integral part of Cerebral's mission to make high-quality mental health care more accessible! 👏

Should #anxiety screenings become a routine part of medical care? Experts say yes. ✅ Certain medical screenings, such as cancer screenings, are now widely recognized recommendations for standard, high-quality medical care. But for the first time, medical experts have begun recommending that all adults under 65 should be screened for anxiety. Many individuals who have an anxiety disorder live with it unknowingly for years before they’re diagnosed. Additionally, untreated anxiety has been linked to higher risks of cardiovascular diseases, elevated blood pressure, and other medical conditions. Screening for anxiety disorders could change that. 👀 Read the full article by our CEO David Mou MD MBA here: https://lnkd.in/gFitMPh9

Let's talk about the legacy of Bebe Moore Campbell. 💜 July is BIPOC Mental Health Awareness Month, which highlights BIPOC #mentalhealth and commemorates trailblazer Bebe Moore Campbell. Bebe Moore Campbell was a best-selling novelist, journalist, and advocate for mental health. Her work explored the intersectionality of mental health, racial identity, family dynamics, environment, society, and culture. She continuously wrote about the impact of real, historical events on Black and marginalized communities, bringing conversations about race to the forefront of society. Let's use this time as a reminder about the importance of advocating for Black, Indigenous, and Peoples of Color. Starting conversations around mental health is an important step toward breaking the stigma and promoting open dialogue. At Cerebral, our mission is to not only make mental healthcare more accessible, but provide resources for all individuals on their mental health journey.
