In celebration of Mental Awareness Month, Mentoring and Grief expert Doug Lawrence is bringing renewed focus through his award-winning books and passion!
You Are Not Alone” provides you with some insight into the world of mentoring and mental health. I hope that you come to the same conclusion that I did. There is truly a place for mentoring as part of the support structure for mental health. The benefits are many and include; reduced sick time in the organization, engaged employees, less turn over, less stress and anxiety, to name but a few.
I have learned so much in writing this book for you. I sincerely hope that you get the same value that I did and that together we can become part of the support structure and walk beside people that are beginning their healing journey.
In Grief the Silent Pandemic, Doug Lawrence offers a guiding light in the darkness of loss. Drawing from decades of experience as a grief mentor and the deeply personal pain of losing his beloved wife, Lawrence provides a compassionate and insightful exploration of the grieving process. With raw honesty and profound empathy, he delves into the complexities of grief, shedding light on the emotional, psychological, and societal challenges it presents.
In Canada, May is officially observed as Mental Health Awareness Month, providing an opportunity to increase understanding of mental health, reduce stigma, and highlight the value of mental health supports and services. Mental health is a fundamental aspect of overall health, affecting individuals, families, and communities across all ages, cultures, and socioeconomic backgrounds. The month emphasizes the importance of inclusive, supportive communities and addresses systemic barriers such as poverty, discrimination, and gender-based violence that can limit access to care.
