We are all just walking each each other home.
This year I chose to write a little poetry on my take of what Bell's Let's Talk mental health day means to me as a psychotherapist. I hope everyone I have ever worked with in a helping and healing capacity has known I will always walk them back home.

"Let's Talk"
Is my everyday honour and privledge
I hear and see your
Darkness
Joy
Anger
Bliss
Sadness
I choose to sit with you there
Lose my mind
Bear witness
Nourish
Speak with an open heart to those pieces lost and forgotten
And when your mind and body are for the moment, empty of pain and judgement
Full of peace and stillness
You can trust
I will always be brave enough to
Walk you back home
