A heartfelt thank you to the Mississippi Psychological Association for this recognition! So much of the work we do in mental health is invisible or behind the scenes. Honored to do the work that I do! #mentalhealth #mentalhealthadvocate #chronicpain #mentalhealthawareness

The burning of dozens of candles and the performance of spiritual songs by the university’s choir were the sights and sounds on the green space in the heart of campus to mourn the loss of 21-year-old Demartravion “Trey” Reed.

Enjoying #WCI360 Keynote address with @OutFrontIdeas discussing Technology Transformation. @kimberlyanngeo encourages us to "be comfortable with being uncomfortable" and to be aware that the disruptors in industry are the ones who make real change. Agree! @wcmarkwalls #tech

Enjoying the Keynote @mwceams and @MarshallRamsey! Very funny & touching reminder of how we are all human and that compassion and humor are so important in life! So enjoyable to learn about all his accomplishments.
Great talk. Ps I love the Banjo book

What is "the work" in therapy?

People often wonder how talk therapy works, if it's just "talking".

The 'work' is the process of change, hard work in changing your perceptions, and the process of coming to understand yourself and your #mentalhealth.

#MentalHealthAwareness

[Dr Geralyn Datz @DrDatz]

The experience of chronic pain is physical and emotional. This is why it is so important to treat the "whole person" with pain, including their mental health! Pain creates physical as well as emotional suffering for many.

Michael Phelps comments on DJ Steven tWitch Boss' death by suicide and his own struggles with depression. Phelps has broken some of silence surrounding mens mental health.

His message? Go to therapy!
Men especially.

#suicide is always a shock. always a tragedy. always devastating.
Suicide is also on the rise.
So very touched by the life and love that #tWitch shared with the world.
