44 | Does Your Friend Need Mental Health Support? Here are 6 Ways You Can Help - featuring Dr. Kandece Skinner


Listen Later

Is your friend just not herself? Does her behavior, sudden distance, or physical appearance have you concerned? Maybe she needs mental health support.

 

Many of us have found ourselves in this situation - where we see that something is different and we genuinely want to help, but we just don’t know what to do. 

 

In this important episode, Dr. Kandece Skinner, a licensed educational psychologist, shares 6 ways you can help a friend who might be struggling. Dr. Skinner also shares 3 things NOT to do when you’re trying to help a friend, including:

 

  1. Do not try to diagnose your friend.
  2. Do not try to fix your friend.
  3. Do not judge your friend.
  4.  

    If we live long enough and encounter enough people, we’ll likely need to put Dr. Skinner’s advice into practice at least once or twice. Or, perhaps a loving friend will use this information to help us, if needed.
