Psychoeducation

Knowledge is power!!! Accessing power is a form of therapy 😉

I LOVE teaching!

In a former version of myself, I worked as a health educator. Before that, my first entrance into healthcare was as a Registered Nurse. Core to every area of nursing is patient education. Is it the fiber woven into everything we do as patient caregivers and advocates.

Every encounter I have with my clients includes psychoeducation. It is one thing to “take the treatment” and entirely another to understand the why behind your options.

In addition to the routine education I offer during sessions (including handouts-I love a good handout!), I also offer custom speaking/teaching services for businesses, schools, and faith communities. This is a great way for more people to get the information they need.

Psychoeducation in North Carolina and Virginia
Mental health education belongs everywhere-in our homes, our places of work, our places of worship, our classrooms, our places of play, and our areas of rest. At all times and in all places, we should be inspired, supported, reminded, and educated about how to take care of our mental health. There is a remedy to the stigma and poor mental health in our society and it begins with education.

How do I teach?

With stories, participant interaction, movement, and fun!
