What Does a Mental Health Practitioner Do?

A mental health practitioner supports people of all ages in understanding and managing their emotional health. Their role is to:

  • Listen without judgment so you feel heard and understood.

  • Identify challenges like stress, anxiety, depression, or burnout.

  • Teach coping skills such as relaxation techniques, healthy thinking patterns, and problem-solving.

  • Support positive lifestyle changes for better mental and emotional balance.

As Dr. Chan Kengy explains, this care can be short-term, to help you through a rough patch, or ongoing, to maintain a healthy mindset in daily life.

Everyday Tips for Better Mental Wellness

Here are some simple, daily habits that can strengthen your mental well-being:

  • Practice Mindful Breathing: Just 5 minutes of slow, deep breathing can calm your mind and reduce stress.

  • Move Your Body: Exercise, even a 20-minute walk, boosts endorphins and helps improve mood.

  • Stay Connected: Talk to a friend, family member, or support group—connection reduces loneliness.

  • Set Boundaries: Learn to say no when you’re overwhelmed. Protecting your energy is an act of self-care.

  • Limit Screen Time: Too much scrolling can increase anxiety. Take short “digital detox” breaks daily.

  • Prioritize Sleep: A rested brain handles stress better. Aim for 7–8 hours of quality sleep.

Celebrate Small Wins: Acknowledge your progress, no matter how small—it builds confidence.
