Mental Health Matters!

 

Mental health is a vital aspect of our overall well-being, and it affects us all. Yet, it is a topic that is often stigmatized and not given the attention it deserves. Raising awareness for mental health supports is crucial, as it benefits everyone regardless of age, gender, or background. It takes great strength and courage to seek support, but it is essential to know that you are not alone.

CIWA’s mental health supports offer culturally-responsive services to immigrants and refugees dealing with issues that impact their mental health and relationships with family members. Our services aim to foster harmonious relationships among families and provide individuals with the tools they need to overcome their struggles.

Our services include one-on-one supportive counselling, couples counselling, family counselling, cross-cultural parenting and grandparenting sessions after conflict, and individual and group discussions on healthy relationships, emotional regulation, communication skills, rebuilding self-esteem, and much more. 

    At CIWA, we understand that seeking support for mental health and relationship issues can be challenging, especially for immigrants and refugees who may be dealing with cultural and language barriers. Our culturally-responsive services aim to provide individuals with the support they need to overcome their challenges and improve their mental health.

    Let’s continue to work together to create a supportive environment for one another. Remember, it takes great strength and courage to seek support, but it is essential to know that you are not alone. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health or relationship issues, don’t hesitate to reach out to CIWA’s mental health supports.
