Everyone needs help with their mental health, even mental health professionals. Join us as we have your therapist take a seat on the couch to talk about their own mental health journey!

Your Therapist Needs Therapy 78 - Men's Mental Health Month
This week Jeremy jumps into the topic of men’s mental health issues and explores the unique mental health challenges men face, shaped by cultural norms of masculinity, stigma, and limited resources. We'll discuss how expectations around self-reliance and toughness often prevent men from seeking help and the consequences of this—like substance use, underreported symptoms, and increased stress. Finally, we discuss the importance of role models and positive representation to shift the narrative around men’s mental health, encouraging open conversations and supportive resources tailored to men’s needs.
Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube.
