"I would not be who I am today without the services that CCS has offered because it has been a spot for me to mitigate my stressors and reflect upon myself." I am more than ecstatic to help raise awareness with Christine Kiray for Butler's Counseling and Consultation Services (CCS) and the great services offered. In my experience, strengthening my mental health through therapy has greatly improved my ability to perform both academically and professionally. The services have helped me become resilient to my stressors while creating a healthy environment of reflection allowing me to perform to the best of my abilities in my daily life. I am being candid when I state: "If you have a lot of external stressors in your life, come to CCS/therapy. If your life is going smoothly and great, come to CCS/therapy". This message is not just for Butler students, but for everybody this post reaches. I am a firm believer that, if mental health resources are accessible, every person should utilize them. YOU can help kick the stigma and start the conversation. I challenge you to have a conversation about mental health with somebody this week. It could be a coworker, a friend, a colleague, or a family member. You may be surprised by what conversations or discussions may arise. If you have questions about CCS or would like to have a conversation about mental health, send me a message and I am more than happy to share my perspective further. You can find more information about my conversation with Christine Kiray at https://bit.ly/3Tq4Hnv.
Next up for our Staff and Student Mentorship series, hear from Christine Kiray, Associate Director of Counseling and Consultation Services (CCS). Committed to providing mental health services, she admires students like Jack Dougher ’24 for their resilience and motivation in their academic and personal journeys.

This week, in honour of #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek, we will be focusing on the topic of young adult mental health! Did you know? Young adults experience the highest incidence of mental health challenges, often facing a disproportionate burden of mental illness. Transitioning to adulthood comes with rapid, significant changes—leaving home, pursuing education, starting careers, managing finances, and tackling debts. These milestones, often tightly clustered, can overwhelm even the most resilient. It’s crucial to talk about these pressures, recognise their impact, and support one another. Stay tuned for insights and resources throughout the week as we shine a light on mental health for young adults. #MentalHealth #YoungAdultMentalHealth References: Granic, I., Morita, H., & Scholten, H.

🌟 Supporting Our Children's Mental Well-Being in the New Year 🌟 As we enter a new year, it's crucial to focus on the mental well-being of our children. Here are some ways we can support them: 1. Open Communication: Create a safe space for them to express their feelings and thoughts. Regularly check in and listen actively. 2. Encourage Healthy Habits: Promote balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and adequate sleep. These are foundational for mental health. 3. Model Resilience: Show them how to handle stress and setbacks with a positive attitude. Your example can be a powerful teaching tool. 4. Foster a Growth Mindset: Celebrate their efforts and progress, not just outcomes. Encourage them to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth. 5. Support their Interests: Engage with their hobbies and passions. It boosts their confidence and provides a healthy outlet for stress. 6. Seek Professional Help if Needed: Don’t hesitate to reach out to counselors or therapists if your child needs additional support. By actively nurturing their mental health, we set our children up for a successful and fulfilling year. Let’s commit to being their strongest advocates and allies in 2024. #MentalHealth #Parenting #ChildDevelopment #SupportOurChildren #NewYearNewGoals

Did you know 75% of all mental health conditions begin by age 24? That’s why the college years are so critical for understanding and talking about mental health, and why NAMI partnered with the Jed Foundation to develop the Mental Health College Guide. Going to college is a big step, and big steps come with excitement, the unknown, and, usually, a healthy amount of stress. That’s not only ok, but it’s to be expected. And it’s the reason this guide was designed by—and for—college students. The guide covers topics from self-care to getting mental health care support, to legal rights and self-advocacy.
