Personal Statement For Mental Health

258 Words2 Pages
I am pursuing a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a graduate degree in mental health counseling afterwards. I believe mental health is a subject important for individuals to be aware of. Mental health includes emotional, psychological, and social well-being of individuals. How we take care of ourselves in these aspects can affect us. The Yakima county is full of diversity and rich in cultures. Many people do not seek out help for mental health concerns because of the lack of awareness. I plan to work in low income communities with a focus in migrant individuals. Our cultural values can sometimes prevent us to reach out to mental health professionals. I intend to create an impact in communities to break the social stigma of mental health.
