Hey y’all!

I’ll cut right to the chase: Voting and elections can increase anxiety and cause shifts in mental health! The tea is that there ARE some things you can do help manage!

1: Find empowerment in your voice! Your voice matters and you share that by casting your vote. You as your own person make a difference and you are valuable.

2: No leader shapes your narrative. Whoever the next elected leader is may have influence over policy and procedure, but you shape your own narrative, your own passion and your own ability to contribute to resolving issues that you are passionate about.

3: Spend time with trusted community! This helps ease fears that creep up in the hours leading up to the close of the polls and the tallying of the vote.

4: Find some point today to disconnect! What you absorb plays a role in your mood!

Merry Christmas 🎄

There are two populations I specifically want to share with today!

1: Those lonely or alone! You are so valuable! Your deeper connections, adopted families and improved friend circles are coming. The holidays alone are never fun, but this is not a forever thing.

2: Those dealing with the effects of grief! Feel what you need. Miss who you miss. Love who you love. Celebrate them how you wish!

My only ask is that you share the gift of intentionality at some time today. Check in on a loved one. If it’s safe, go see them!

As a therapist and a human, I empathize with anyone who struggles to feel that their life should not continue.

I’m not really a fan of “you don’t know what someone is carrying”. This is mostly because we should just elevate to being better humans. Creating intentional check in and continuously working toward dismantling social norms that create a culture of being okay when we aren’t.

My heart goes out or the family of twitch. My heart goes out to any Black Man who is struggling with suicidal thoughts. And my heart goes out to any other person who is struggle to keep the course of life.

If you or someone you know is struggling with su***de reach out to #988

I went to a Christmas party.
I made banana pudding.
The buckeyes have made a good rebound.

This week: find hoy in small places 😇

Friendships! Let’s talk about ‘em!!!! When you have a few good ones, your life is easily elevated.

Check out some of these red flags to assess you friendships!

Though small, my friendship circle radiates with accountability, laughter, prayer, and straight up shenanigans (which I love lol).

That wasn’t always my truth! And to this day, I find that most of the work I do doubles it’s way back to many of the things I have experienced in friendship.

You might have noticed that I been a little off the scene! That’s mostly because I’ve been really trying to hone in on what parts of mental health are really “my thing” besides just be a dope, trappy, hood and good black therapist! And that’s friendship!

Now be sure to tell a friend to tell a friend and make sure your friends are really yo friends!

Share this with somebody 😎

Earlier this week I had the opportunity to join my gal pal and the best massage therapist around .

We talked about the importance of stress management and how to do so mentally and physically!

One of my favorite things about being a dope therapist is that I have the opportunity to connect with others who are invested in the wellness or other.

Thanks for having me sis!

Y’all be sure to check her out if you’re in the Columbus Area!

Thank you to MANRRS for having me yesterday at their regional cluster meeting this weekend.

MANRRS is an organization dedicated to Black students and professionals who are in the agriculture and STEM fields! This group of young people is BRIGHT!

We talked about self-care specifically for their field and I learned a lot as well!

Thank God for another opportunity to put mental health in non-traditional platforms!

It’s possible to mourn or be impacted by the loss of someone you don’t know personally. That’s a sign of empathy!

Death can also be traumatic when it’s public.

There are not always enough words for grief. There is not always a good time frame either.

Practicality comes in finding a few skills that work and using them when needed.

Some of these skills can be helpful!

We send our prayers and heart vibes to the family of
and the music community as well.

There would be no Mental Health Manager if there was no TEDxKLB. In 2018 I was a speaker and I’ve volunteered every year since.

It is one of the greatest because it highlights the work of Black people doing work in OUR community! It’s beautiful and rich!

Being a speaker along with my God gift has allowed me go (and I am still going) places that I never dreamed of.

This has been ringing true more and more as I continue to walk in my God-Given Purpose!

October has been really cool because I have had some DOPE opportunities to put mental health in spaces that are far from traditional and that is exactly aligned with what I am called to do. I’ve been really filled up by my assignment.

As I continue to move, I’m really grateful to have the support that I do! Y’all are the best 😇.

September is Su***de Prevention Month.
As a Therapist, this topic is very important to me and specially because I have been impacted by it in my personal life.

August came with some disappointments for me, but I’m grateful for safe places and spaces where I was emotionally and mentally safe. Unfortunately, that’s not everyone’s story.

Join me in making a commitment to being more gentle and kind and mindful of your interactions with others. Check on your “strong friends”. Cope well. Admit when you’re not okay.

Sincerely,
Your Dope Therapist
