This blog will help you understand the importance of mental health awareness and the various services we provide for all your mental healthcare needs.

It's crucial for caregivers, friends, and loved ones to understand mental health's impact on daily life.

Mental Health Awareness provides education about the realities of living with a mental health condition. While it can make life more difficult, it doesn't have to stop you from leading a fulfilling life. When people are better educated on these conditions, they can better support and help you if you are dealing with a mental health issue.

Nearly one in five adults in the US has a mental health condition. But that one person has family, friends, and others whose lives are touched by their condition, even if they don't themselves suffer from one. Mental Health Awareness can help you overcome the stigma and get access to treatment. It can also help your friends, family, and loved ones to better understand their condition and connect with support networks. It helps the providers who treat those with a condition receive funding for their research and treatment to better care for all our mental health. In short, we can all benefit from mental health awareness.

We provide the following services for you and your loved ones:

Applied Behavior Analysis

Establishing and maintaining relationships is tough with developmental disabilities, thereby affecting the social abilities of the children suffering from it. ABA therapy strives to teach such kids to build relationships and improve their social skills. This is done through a plethora of techniques that involve establishing speaker orientation, initiating discussions, sharing toys, waiting their turn, detecting non-verbal social cues, and reacting to verbal ones. 

  1. Aids With Functional Skills

    If you have a child who has been diagnosed with a spectrum disorder like autism, we can help you out. We offer a therapy called applied behavior analysis. Sometimes called ABA therapy, it’s designed to help children on the spectrum develop social and emotional skills. ‌

    Applied behavior analysis is a type of interpersonal therapy in which a child works with a practitioner one-on-one. The goal of applied behavior analysis is to improve social skills by using interventions based on the principles of learning theory.

    ABA therapy helps children on the autism spectrum by:

    • Increasing their social abilities like completing tasks, communicating, and learning new skills

    • Implementing maintenance behaviors like self-control and self-regulation

    • Teaching them to transfer learned behaviors to new environments

    • Modifying the learning environment to challenge them in specific scenarios

    • Reducing negative behaviors like self-harm

    Individual Therapy

    Individual Therapy is one type of psychotherapy in which a trained professional helps you work through personal issues that you may have been facing. It is an effective treatment for a variety of emotional difficulties and mental illnesses. Also known as talk therapy, it can help improve or control symptoms that influence your well-being. At Vida healing, we believe that the various therapy sessions that we conduct give you the opportunity to confidentially talk through problems or situations with a trained professional. It does not necessarily make your problems disappear but equips you with the tools needed to cope with them more appropriately.

    Family Therapy

    Family Therapy is a type of treatment designed to help with issues that specifically affect the mental health and functioning of your family. It can help individual family members build stronger relationships, improve communication, and manage conflicts within the family system. By improving how family members interact and relate to one another, family therapy can foster change in close relationships.

    Through family therapy, we aim to create a better home environment, solve family issues, and create an emotionally stronger and happier family.

    Marriage and Couples Therapy

    If you are facing issues in your marriage, we can provide you with the most effective solutions that will help enhance your married life. We can help you deal with specific relationship issues (like infidelity or ineffective communication), strengthen your bond in general, and help you and your partner communicate and express your respective opinions and emotions more openly. In marriage and couples therapy, you and your partner can work together on improving communication, building trust, and resolving conflict. Get in touch with us now. Call us on the below numbers
