This special episode is a departure from using intervention tools in real-time and instead explores their value from a population-based mental health perspective.
In this episode, we explore what it means for Sogand Zakerhaghighi to be a visibly Muslim mental health professional living in Canada (and in Alberta specifically). We both delve into what mental health conversations look like in our respective Muslim cultures along with the value and challenges of working in communities we belong to. We talk about the need for integrative approaches to care that include but are not limited to, cognitive-behavioural therapy. And we talk about the new frontier of social media as a psychosocial intervention.
