May is Mental Health Awareness Month
Ashley Gilmore is a licensed therapist who supervises FMF's counseling intern and provides therapeutic support to our families. Christine Lutterloh is our counseling intern who has been integral in providing mental health support for our families. This is what they have to say for Mental Health Awareness Month.
Ashley: "Just as your physical and financial health is important, so is your mental health. Finding a qualified mental health professional to help you increase mental wellness through therapy is necessary for you to be a better, stronger person. Be sure to reach out if you feel you may be depressed, anxious or need help figuring out life. I promise, you will not regret it."
Christine: "Mental and emotional wellness is important to me because it impacts every area of life. Life already has plenty of ups and downs, hard times and bad times. When we are emotionally unwell, it makes it that much more difficult to navigate through it all. So, it is my goal to help those who want to uproot the traumas, negative automatic thoughts, grief, and addiction, to experience an abundant life that is fulfilling and rewarding."
