MENTAL HEALTH

MENTAL HEALTH MENTORING


Mental health struggles can feel overwhelming, lonely and often times discouraging. The reality is that the majority of the population faces mental health challenges at some point during their lives. You do not have to face these feelings alone. Mentorship acts as a critical support to an individual coping with symptoms of a mental health diagnosis. Mentors work alongside an individual’s treatment team (therapist, psychiatrist, nutritionist Etc.) to reach their therapeutic goals, utilize healthy coping strategies and gain symptom relief. A mentor may help a client face and successfully move through anxiety provoking engagements, debilitating phobias, or taking contrary action to mood dependent behaviors. To do so, mentors will collaborate with the individual and their support system to execute an individualized self-care plan. Once this action plan is established, the mentor will support the client in follow through, structure and consistency. When necessary, mentors may also support their clients with medication management.

STUDENTS


Mentors act as an in person guides to support teens and their families in finding a healthy balance between school, friends, self-care, and family time.

STUDENT MENTORING


Academics, peer pressures, friendships and hormones can be extremely challenging to navigate for teens and their parents. Although there are informative and informational guides to moving through the teenage years successfully, reading versus applying these suggestions are entirely different actions. Mentors act as in-person guides to support teens and their families in finding a healthy balance between school, friends, self-care and family time. To do this, mentors provide each individual with a planner to visually organize and prioritize their schedules while following through with their responsibilities and reaching their goals. If an individual is struggling with focus, completing homework or taking tests, mentors will supply them with helpful tools and necessary resources to work through these challenges. For teens struggling with peer pressures and friendships, mentors will act as a daily support to help them process challenging emotions and stressors while developing and utilizing healthy coping strategies. A mentor that is relatable and acts as ‘their person’ can provide teens with a safe person to confide in and process the many challenges of being a teenager in today’s world. Mentors will support teens and their families in setting and maintaining healthy boundaries necessary to maintaining a healthy and communicative home environment.

What is Therapeutic Mentoring? 


Individuals and families often seek a therapeutic mentor when they or a loved one is in need of support beyond the therapy room to implement their therapeutic skills and reach their goals. Getting support beyond the therapy room or treatment environment provides individuals with accountability and guidance in developing goals, breaking them down into reachable steps, and gaining empowerment to transition into doing this on their own. A therapeutic mentor will also relieve family members of their management role to be able to work on their familial relationships and family dynamics. 

The therapeutic world can be daunting to navigate. Therapeutic mentors will facilitate this process by connecting everyone involved on an individual’s support team by providing them with weekly updates to ensure collaborative, comprehensive, and optimal care.
