Hey Open Arms community! We're thrilled to introduce a brand-new category on our forum: Ask the Experts.
This is your golden opportunity to get your burning questions answered directly by professionals in the field of mental health. ð
What's the Thought Behind This? ðĪ
We understand that mental health is a complex subject, and sometimes Google just doesn't cut it. That's why we're bringing in certified psychologists, therapists, counselors, and other experts to provide you with accurate, reliable information. Whether you're curious about coping strategies, the latest treatments, or just want to understand mental health better, this is the place to ask!
How Does It Work? ð ïļ
Announcement: We'll make an announcement on our social media platforms a week before an expert session. This will include the expert's field of specialization and the date of the Q&A.
Post Your Questions: Once the announcement is out, you'll have a week to post your questions under this category. Feel free to ask anything that falls within the expert's field.
Expert Session: On the scheduled date, the expert will join the forum and start answering your questions. You'll get notified when your question has been answered!
Follow-Up: Missed the live session? No worries! The thread will remain open for you to read through the expert's responses at your own pace.
A Few Ground Rules ð
Please keep your questions respectful and relevant to the topic.
No personal medical advice will be given. The information is for educational purposes.
Be patient. The expert will try to answer as many questions as possible, but due to time constraints, some questions may not get answered.
So, get those questions ready and let's make the most of this incredible learning opportunity! ð
Looking forward to your active participation! Let's empower ourselves through knowledge! ð
