I am so incredibly grateful to each and everyone of you for all your support and for believing in me and in Superhero Therapy.
This past month has been magical. I have been able to visit four different countries in 16 days – Germany, Italy, Ireland, and England, in order to train mental health professionals in how to conduct Superhero Therapy and advocate for mental health destigmatization via pop culture.
I was also able to do a panel and a book signing at London Comic Con as a part of my work with the Pop Culture Hero Coalition – an amazing Coalition set out to fight against bullying, mysogyny, and prejudice. Our motto – “we all love heroes, why not be one?”
Your incredible generosity is allowing Superhero Therapy to help others in need. How are you helping:
1) We are still giving away FREE Superhero Therapy books to those organizations/individuals who cannot afford them. People in need can email SuperheroTherapy@gmail.comto request one.
2) After learning about the extraordinary high suicide rates in Ireland, I’ve decided to send this month’s Superhero Therapy donation from Patreon and book sales to Samaritans, an organization set to support individuals who are experiencing mental health crisis in the U.K.
3) While doing a book sale in London, we offered many of our books for “pay what you can” and gave away some for free to those who could not afford them.
4) Superhero Therapy, in partnership with the Pop Culture Hero Coalition, is conducting several free mental health workshops for refugee families in San Diego and giving away free self-help books, including Superhero Therapy
In addition, so many exciting things are happening because of all your support!
I was able to train a few hundred mental health providers in Europe over the course of two weeks about how to use Superhero Therapy. In addition, it looks like Superhero Therapy may be getting translated to more languages, such as (possibly) German, Arabic, French, Spanish, and Russian (fingers crossed for all these). Currently, it is available in English, Italian, and will soon be available in Chinese.
My goal is to be able to make Superhero Therapy attainable and affordable to everyone who needs it. I would love to hear your ideas about how to continue serving our community in this way.
Thank you for all your continued support and generosity <3
