Mental Health Awareness Finally Gets a Makeover | Dr. Rheeda Walker

May is Mental Health Awareness month. Organizations, mental health professionals and advocates have been invested in decreasing mental health stigma for generations. As a clinical psychologist, researcher, and professor, I think I know why there is so much resistance to understanding and addressing mental health in our broader society. In this video, I share my new insights and offer a different perspective that will inspire each of us to commit to mental health.

Does this conversation make you think differently about "mental health"?

Thank you so much for addressing mental health issues and the stigma (fears) involved. However, as an FBA, I have never experienced "brown people" or "new amerians" difficulties in this country as being closely related to my what I have experienced.

Yikes... and then their are the psychologist on the planet who don't research that it's impossible to choke and kill someone from behind the neck, and thus treat her patient for a trauma that never happened based on a lie... in essence we have to be able to diagnose the situation accurately to know what we are treating.. I'm sure this will unfortunately offend you bu5 my issue with psychologist is they are under deep illusions themselves 🤷🏽‍♀️ Thank you for this video though i certainly agree with the need to break the stigma that prioritizing your mental health means you are crazy... although it definitely means you are acknowledging you have a mental illness potentially and thats ok because many of us are walking undiagnosed including psychologist ❤ lol. However healing is a gift to self and everyone around you...

Parenting can be tough. One of the best places to start is with your child's pediatrician.
