Hi,
You might be wondering who we are, why we think we can support you, etc. Well the organization behind this forum is a non-profit called Affordable Mental Health Programs, and we are dedicated to helping others with mental health related problems for no or low cost. We are also dedicated to providing quality information and resources to people who need help with emotional eating, obesity, mental health issues, and other challenges related to all of these topics.
Mary Kirkpatrick, the main admin is a nationally certified counselor with a masters degree in Mental Health Counseling. She has been working with adults, children, and families for three years, and recently started working as both a family counselor and outpatient counselor. Her credentials include NCC (National Certified Counselor), Qualified Mental Health Professional for Adults (QMHP-A), and Qualified Mental Health Professional for Children (QMHP-C). Her role on this forum is to provide coaching and support.
Those seeking mental health counseling for serious mental illness should be seen by their physician and a licensed mental health professional such as an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) or LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker). You can find local providers by searching www.psychologytoday.com. If you just want affordable coaching and support, please stay here, participate, and post if you need one-on-one coaching in this area.
Thank you!
