Community

Disasters such as COVID-19, the flooding in certain parts of Nigeria, mine collapse in South Africa, droughts across other parts of Africa and failing economies has had a significant impact on the mental health and wellbeing of Africans and communities across the globe. As we continue to navigate through these uncertain times, We are experiencing heightened anxiety, stress, uncertainty and fear in our communities.

An individual’s personal experience such as trauma, financial lack, violence, discrimination, social exclusion, cultural isolation, and elder abuse can impact their psychological health and wellbeing and are among some of the most challenging issues for individuals and vulnerable population groups

Engaging, thought -provoking and apt are my three words for the mental health day Webinar we just concluded. Not like anything I’ve experienced lately. I give it to the TCM Academy and the coach who handled the training. He repped them good 👍

The facilitator was sound, knowledgeable and relatable. I had to go googling, turns out he also had plenty work experience and I was not supprised, the mood chart provided in the seminar had helped me documents the yo-yo effect I was battling and on sending it across, I felt the academy will not revert but I was supprised when their lead counsel responded to me and gave me 20minutes of analysis time. All I can say is that they have wellbeing at the heart of their practice. Highly recommend..

The 2022 mental health webinar has helped me and my colleagues a lot. Working from home in a tech firm is not always what it looks like but this course changed it all.

We changed our employee assistance programe provider two years ago to TCMA. This has helped us all grow because even toxicity within our work space and all the previous water cooler gossip has declined. We can’t miss the link between the entrance of this new EAP provider and hese changes. Their therapist teach with skills and practical exercises that help you become better. Will recommend them to anybody with marital and career issues. Keep going

My emotional, spiritual, psychological and financial wellbeing are all parts of self-care. Taking care of myself along these lines is the true definition of mental health. Words on Marble sir. Won’t forget these.
