As we step into a new year, it’s a poignant time to reflect on the importance of maintaining and nurturing our mental health. At Greater Houston Counseling Services (GHCS), we firmly believe that embracing mental wellness is a crucial aspect of every individual’s life, and therapy can play a transformative role in achieving it. In this blog, we explore the essence of mental wellness and how GHCS can support you on this vital journey.
What is Mental Wellness?
Embracing mental wellness goes beyond the absence of mental illness. It encompasses a positive state of well-being where an individual realizes their own abilities, can cope with the normal stresses of life, work productively, and contribute to their community. It’s about feeling good about who you are, the way you live, and how you interact with others.
