About Mental and Emotional Central
Welcome
to Mental and Emotional Central. We’re so happy that you’re here and embarking
on your journey of self-discovery with us.
At
Mental and Emotional Central, we aren’t just passionate about mental health —
we’re completely fascinated by it. As the experts staying up-to-date on the
most recent insights that the industry has to offer, we sift through the
science and provide you with only the most credible information validated by
our medical review team. We use an evidence-based approach while keeping in
mind that clinical research is only one piece of the puzzle. Real people are at
the heart of our content, and we’re here to listen and learn from your lived
experiences to make your voices heard.
Our
goal is to help connect you with the guidance and support you need to help make
meaningful changes that can benefit you in your real life. At Mental and
Emotional Central, we believe that exploring your mental health is less about
identifying what’s “wrong” and more about fortifying your strengths and
deepening your understanding of yourself and your needs.
But
we understand that this process is a marathon, not a sprint. Whether this is
your first time exploring your mental health options or you’ve been on this
path with us since the beginning, we want to meet you where you are and let you
know you’re not alone.
We’re
here for you, and we’re here with you because you are at the
center of what we do.
What does Mental and Emotional Central stand for?
Living
with a mental health condition has often meant speaking in code: a mental
health crisis becomes “personal leave,” or a support group becomes a “dentist
appointment.” Mental health has been a conversation steeped in shame — until
now.
At
Mental and Emotional Central, we break down the stigma that surrounds mental
illness. We empower our readers to be proactive in their mental health journey,
offering clear, actionable next steps to help them protect their mental health.
We
understand the healing power of connecting people, providing evidence-based
information, and meeting the reader with empathy and respect. This is so
important in mental health — an area where people often feel alone in their
experiences.
We
believe that the right mental health tools and support can allow anyone —
regardless of their starting point — to thrive in their whole-body health. Our
mission is to provide a strong, evidence-based foundation for greater emotional
well-being, deeper self-awareness, and tools for the journey ahead.
We’re
happy you’re here!
