Healing the Body and Mind | Breast Cancer Awareness Month & World Mental Health Day
On October 10th, our Lead Clinical Psychologist Dr. Soud Tenga, joined a Breast Cancer Awareness event in Mombasa organized by Bwire Ndubi Warriors Foundation and Wellcare Hospital.
The event brought together survivors, caregivers, clinicians, and community members for a walk, free screenings, and counselling services — a reminder that breast cancer is not just a medical diagnosis, but an emotional journey.
Dr. Tenga shared:
“A breast cancer diagnosis is not only a medical event—it’s an emotional burden. The fear, anger, and grief that follow are not signs of weakness, but signs of being human.”
He also reflected on how cancer impacts identity and self-worth, reminding us that healing is physical, emotional, and psychological.
At MEHIR Consultancy, we believe mental health support must be part of cancer care. Survivors deserve help not only to fight the disease, but also to heal from the emotional and psychological toll it brings.
