Freelance Independent Practitioner | Practicing Counselling Psychologist | Queer Affirmative Counselling Practitioner | Trauma-Informed Mental Health Professional
I am pleased to announce that I will be facilitating an online safe space consultation meeting titled "Man Enough? Rethinking the Question," co-facilitated with Harish Sadani, co-founder and executive director of Men Against Violence and Abuse (MAVA). This event will feature an open dialogue focused on men, emotions, mental health, and masculinities. We will explore: - How traditional and contemporary views on masculinity affect men's mental health and emotional well-being. - The importance of allowing men to express their emotions freely and the societal barriers that often hinder this. - How we can collectively redefine what it means to be "man enough" in a way that promotes emotional health and well-being. The meeting aims to create a supportive and inclusive environment where participants can share their experiences, learn from one another, and contribute to a broader understanding of these critical issues.

How can we better honor our own humanity? And the humanity of others? It's okay to not be okay, but now what? Mental health stigma is a big challenge everyone, and particularly in communities of color. The Big Health team had the honor of hosting the wonderful Andrea Brown, Executive Director of the Black Mental Health Alliance for Education & Consultation, Inc. for a discussion on honoring our humanity and the humanity of others. Here are some of of the things we learned: 1. We have to see our mental health as a priority and free ourselves from the stigma. Therapy is not a bad word. It says “I am working on me.” This means being comfortable setting and enforcing our boundaries. 2. We have to be able to do the brave thing, admit when we need help, and seek it out. Dig into why we don’t feel whole through journaling, therapy, and/or conversations with our community. 3. We have to be seeing each other, honoring each others humanity, honoring our own humanity. #Sawubona means we see you, we see all of one another. This means taking the time to greet others, to actively listen and engage, and recognizing the value of the other human beings around us.
