It’s mental health awareness month, and one of the things we are passionate about at Vander Hooven and Associates is doing anything and everything we can to end the stigma that is associated with mental health. . .Certain conditions people are dealing with like Depression, Anxiety, Mental Illness and the like are in fact, stigmatized! Mental Health, YOUR mental health, is a significant piece of your health and wholeness.As a matter of fact, many studies show that there is... a direct correlation between your mental health and your physical health. . . .One way you can initiate a response to ending that stigma is to evaluate your own mental health and make it a priority in your life! Here’s a few questions you could ask yourself to get started!! . . . .#EMDR #emdrtherapist #therapist #agourahills #westlakevillage #californiatherapists #selfcare #trauma #depression #clientreferral #emdrgroup #depressiontreatment #emdrtherapy #groupconsultation #consultation #support #therapisttraining #mondaymarketing #marketingmonday #motivationmonday #youareworthy #depression #growthmindset#anxiety #coping #healing #trauma #healingfromtrauma #mentalhealthawareness See more

Do you struggle with feelings of guilt or shame due to depression or anxiety? If so then you’ve probably experienced how those feelings seem to add to the struggles you’re already facing day to day. I don’t think anyone would disagree that the current emotional climate is pretty uncertain and chaotic, and it can be difficult to cope at times! If you’re struggling with feelings of guilt and shame for just not coping well or struggling to find your footing emotionally, please ...know YOU ARE OK! IT’s OK! You are human and it’s ok to struggle! Love yourself and extend some compassion to yourselfespecially on your worst days! Choose love and choose to accept yourself right where you are!! . . . .#therapist #therapistsofinstagram #californiatherapists #westlakevillage #thousandoaks #calabasas #agourahills #agoura #woodlandhills #malibu #gratitude #grateful #gratefulliving #gratefuleveryday #peace #worldpeace #intention #startthedaywithanintention #compassion #selfcompassion #innerstrength #innerpeace #selfmotivation #motivationalquotes #youareworthy #presentmoment #kindness See more
