According to a comprehensive research study conducted by Mental Health America... nearly a hundred million people that live in the U.S. are currently experiencing psychological distress symptoms so severe that they meet the diagnostic criteria for mental illness.
Nearly 1 in 5 American adults are diagnosed with a mental health condition each year.
46% of the US population will meet the criteria for a diagnosable mental health condition at some point in their life.
And nearly half of that 46% will develop conditions by the AGE OF14!
"Wellness is the complete integration of body, mind and spirit. The realization that everything we do, think, feel, and believe has an effect on our state of wellbeing." -Greg Anderson
There’s a lot of talk about “mental health” these days
— but what does it actually mean?
Let's face it, the concept of mental health (and mental healthcare, for that matter) is something of a paradox. After all, determining a person's psychological state typically hinges on the biased perspectives of others. This includes clinical practitioners who spend a concerningly brief amount of time with their clients (typically 50 mins per week) yet rely on mutual trust, meaningful connection, and inadequate observation to not only accurately diagnose but also affectively treat individuals suffering from psychological distress. Needless to say, this woefully perilous process is not only insufficient, it has become part of the problem.
At the very least, proper assessment of a person's "mental health" should take into account their neurological functioning, intellectual capacity, developmental milestones, trauma history, genetic predispositions, cultural influences, learned behaviors, ingrained belief systems, nervous system functioning, hormone levels, gut health, and environmental factors. Add to that the ever-changing complexities that accompany everyday life -including the aging process, one's economic status, personal relationships, and access to support systems- and one could argue that the concept of sanity is more of a living phenomenon than it is "soundness of mind" (Webster's Dictionary). After all, if life itself hasn't made each one of us a little crazy, are we even paying attention?!
Nevertheless, in a society that prizes conformity and grows more divided by the day, it’s no surprise that we continue to mistake emotional suppression for strength. But this belief comes at a cost. It pushes people to doubt themselves and label others, referencing completely normal reactions to relentless stress — such as moodiness, disorientation, and exhaustion — as signs of personal weakness or illness. However, these reactions aren’t failures. They’re simply human responses to a culture that demands endurance while offering little room for honesty or rest.
AT THE MENTAL WELLNESS MOVEMENT, WE'RE CONFRONTING THE MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS HEAD-ON!
Through our immersive and coactive platform, we offer individuals an opportunity to explore and benefit from a wide variety of restorative healing practices and therapeutic techniques, empowering each client to discover the modalities that truly work for them. This dynamic and integrative care model is designed to inspire self-efficacy while resourcing clients with a vetted network of holistic healthcare practitioners, support service providers, and community partners who each play a role in caring for their mental health and wellbeing.
“The power of community to create health is far greater than any physician, clinic or hospital.”
The Mental Wellness Movement is committed to providing empathetic, equitable, and embodied care grounded in practical application. This begins by fostering a culture of compassion and collaboration - where clients feel a sense of solidarity and safety knowing that their humanistic needs can be honored and tended to with care.
In a world that is often isolating, demeaning, and downright destructive to the human spirit, we strive to be the opposite. In fact, our central purpose is to initiate a corrective emotional experience that is powerful enough for the mind, body, and spirit to begin healing itself.
"Self-care is how you take your power back." -Lalah Deliah
Whether it be a personalized nutrition plan to increase your vitality, a therapeutic massage to soothe your nervous system, or a sacred sound bath to nourish your soul, we work with our clients to curate a truly transformative experience that will cultivate peace of mind and leave you feeling great in your skin!
In addition to our one-on-one services, The Mental Wellness Movement hosts a variety of wellness workshops, transformative support groups, and "conscious community" gatherings that are open to the public. These special events enable individuals of all walks of life to explore our services, reconnect with their inner healer, and experience the transformative power of community.
