Mental Health is Essential
As an art therapist, I understand the power art has for healing and change. I also understand the stigma that’s associated with mental health and the need for support and help. During these unprecedented times with COVID-19, there is an increasing need for healthcare workers around the world to have support in regards to physical and mental health as they face physical and mental exhaustion, grief and loss, trauma, anxiety and depression. Mental health is essential. We need to end the stigma and make it okay for helpers to need and ask for help.
