THE MELANIN NEST OBSERVES MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH DURING MAY!
ABOUT US
The Melanin Nest was started by two African American women who faced the daily mental struggles of Anxiety, Depression, Panic Disorders and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). We joined forces and were determined to break the stigmas and barriers surrounding mental health in our community. We wanted to create a space that provides resources, tools, tips, support, guidance, and awareness. We have gained the knowledge and became Certified Mental Health Advocates and Coaches in order to provide the community with support groups, workshops, seminars and One-on-One coaching. We have created and designed a Mental Health Directory that is full of Melanin Mental Health Advocates, Coaches, Licensed Counselors and Licensed Social Workers.
So Welcome to Our Community!!!
