“lok ki kehenge!” “sade ghar vich nai ehe problem” “I can’t seek help or treatment because I have no time and too many responsibilities.” We hear these too often, and these are the common deterrents from someone getting the help they need. Dr. Harry Sekhon, Dr. Preet Sabharwal, and Baldev Mutta discuss mental and emotional wellness. Topics discussed: how to recognize someone needs help, understanding feeling and emotions, stigma and myths around mental health, mental health struggles within South Asian Women, how to seek help or treatment living with in-laws or a joint family Confidentiality & Privacy when seeking Mental Health treatment. Thank you to our Panelists: Dr. Harry Sekhon – Specialization in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Dr. Preet Sabharwal – Founder of South Asian Mental Health Consortium, Baldev Mutta – CEO and Founder of Punjabi Community Health Services, Anaika Sahota (Moderator) – Sahaita Volunteer
