Hi! I am raising funds to support locals in Sri Lanka experiencing mental health difficulties. I will be working with SLV.Global in September 2019 to increase mental well-being in local communities as part of an 8 week Psychology placement. This is an important work related experience and opportunity to help raise awareness around mental health and to decrease the stigma currently surrounding mental health. The work will aim to help those who live in marginalised communities, who may not have access to help and interventions to increase their mental health. Activities include leading therapeutic sessions for locals, teaching in schools, working in clinical settings and on community projects
