therapeutic activism

Therapeutic activism is a collaborative approach where mental health professionals empower individuals to actively work through their emotional and psychological challenges. It combines therapeutic strategies with advocacy, encouraging people to understand their issues, develop coping skills, and sometimes advocate for systemic changes that improve mental health awareness and access. Essentially, it emphasizes not only personal healing but also engaging in activities that promote broader mental health support and reduce stigma, fostering a sense of agency and community involvement in the pursuit of well-being.
