Migration to a new country can cause significant stress for women. The document outlines 7 common stress factors for immigrant women in Canada: age, education, childcare, language barriers, isolation, income challenges, and difficulties adapting life skills to a new cultural context. It then describes a 7-step program to help empower immigrant women and reduce stress through self-assessment, counseling, goal-setting, training, peer support, self-marketing skills, and ongoing case management.

Resilience is the ability to bounce back which starts with having a healthy foundation and viewing adversity as an opportunity to grow and face a new challenge
This is an educational training designed for organizations, executives and employees who desire Excellence. In doing so, gaining awareness of the bigger picture.
Most people could probably be described as having a moderate need for affiliation, but some people have an extremely low need and others have an extremely high need.
Murray used the term need to describe a kind of force within a person that organizes a person’s thoughts, feelings, and behavior.
A person with a high need for affiliation is so motivated to build and maintain relationships with other people that many of his or her thoughts, emotions, and actions are directed toward fulfilling this motivation.

Bandura’s basic premise is that people have great power to influence and shape their own lives, but unless they believe this concept is true, that personal power will do no good. ("Self-Efficacy")

In 2015, at the NAFSA Region V conference, Jennifer Frankel (from International Student Insurance), Justin Osadjan (from Roosevelt University) and Colleen Seaton (from Northwestern University) presented on the topic of "Improving Mental Health Awareness Among International Students"
Lack of Mental Health Awareness In The Workplace TherapistTee
This presentation was presented at the Pittsburgh Carnegie Library, Business and Technology Series event in December of 2013. This presentation discusses the problems associated with corporations, organizations, and other businesses in failing to bring awareness to the existence of mental health. This presentation also touches upon the inability of employees to seek mental health care without fearing loss of employment, loss of confidentiality, or stigma.
Most employees have legal or federal rights to protect their mental health information from employers, but there are exceptions to this rule. HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996), which supposedly protects all mental and medical health information from being exposed, is briefly discussed.
This is a small non supported presentation I put together to help open the door on Mental Health issues with young people aimed at ages12-18. All information is taken from the NHS or other accredited sites. It is for awareness and not a medical tool, as I am no professional in this area. Any feed back is welcome and please bare in mind it is awareness based information only and I have kept it simple and straight forward for easy of those receiving the information. There is an additional handout with useful information and contact details
How much do you know about mental health? The Staff Health & Wellbeing team at Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust have compiled a quiz to help you improve your awareness of mental health.

About the Social Worker
Katelyn Miller MSW, LISW-S
Katelyn’s Role at Family Health Services is to provide counseling
to a local school. This is separate from the guidance counselor.
Katelyn will have students come in via appointment while they are
In school, which overcomes the barrier of transportation when it
comes to children getting access to mental health resources.
Social Worker’s Professional History
Work History
Katelyn came to her position at Family Health Services after several different experiences with different agencies. She first worked with hospice care, and then went to community mental health. After her experiences there she went to work with child welfare. After working for a bit in child welfare she became a mother overnight to three children entering the system. She then took a brief break from working in the field so she could navigate motherhood. She then landed at Family Health Services where she is today.
Education History
From a young age Katelyn knew she wanted to be in a field where she could assist those with significant mental health struggles.
Katelyn attended Bluffton University to receive her Bachelors degree in Social Work and continued her education at the University of Tennessee Knoxville where she graduated with a Master of Science in Social Work.
Professional Advancement
Because Katelyn has her LISW-S she has the ability to take on supervisory duties. As her organization grows there is a chance that she could use her credentials to help prepare and teach other Social Workers. She could potentially become the supervisor of the school counseling department at Family Health Services.
Katelyn currently is content with her current standing and has no plans on advancing at the moment. However, she is aware that there are many opportunities for her to grow at Family Health Services.
For professional advancement she also continues her education and does the mandatory thirty hours of CE education to maintain licensure.
Satisfaction and Self Care
Katelyn informed me that she is incredibly satisfied with her job. She referred to herself as a “die-hard social worker” and says she would not want to be anywhere else
For self care she takes baths, meditates, and is very active at her church.
As a word of advice, she told me that I should always know myself, and my boundaries. She said that self care is so important so that you do .
