Justin Hyacinth LMHC

If you have been tuning into Strong Mind, Soft Life with Dr. Topaz, you know she always shows love for the women. This month, Dr. Topaz is intentional about showing lots of love for the men too. June is Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month which is designed to raise awareness, eradicate stigma, and encourage a focus on mental wellness for men. Listen as Dr. Topaz and Justin Hyacinth, LMHC, explore the intersection of mental health and the Caribbean culture, as it relates to the concept of masculinity. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Justin has a particular passion for supporting men’s mental health and working with clients who feel overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, burned out, or disconnected from themselves. There is so much to take away from the conversation. We have to encourage our fathers, sons, husbands and brothers to tap into their physical AND emotional strength. There is power in saying, “I love you,” and “I apologize.”  In the words of Dr. Topaz, “We need our brothers to be well.” Father’s Day is coming up. Share this episode with a man who holds a special place in your heart. Let’s establish an interconnected community that is committed to creating strong minds and soft lives. Listening to this podcast is an investment in yourself. And when you are better, we are all better. Join us, Sisters…and Brothers too!
