Did you know that 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experience mental illness each year – but less than half receive treatment? This Mental Health Awareness Month, Counseling Services wants to remind you that mental illness affects many people, and there’s no shame in reaching out for help. Mental health is about more than illness and struggle, of course. It includes fostering healthy habits of self-awareness, self-esteem, and self-care. It involves enjoying positive relationships, navigating challenges with resilience, and finding satisfaction with yourself and with your life.
Central Piedmont’s Counseling Services encourages you to pause and consider your own mental health right now. What’s working? What would you like to be different? What can you do to move closer to the life you want? You can even take a free, confidential mental health screening and access additional information and resources.
Students are invited to speak with a member of our team. Services are free and confidential. Visit us online to learn more!
