It’s time to Rethink How We Think About Mental Health.  

Mental health has come out of the closet as a mainstream conversation especially since the 2020 Covid-19 shared experience of isolation, anxiety, loss, uncertainty and continuous change in many aspects at home, at work and in our community engagement. Given the extent of stress, challenge, shock and at times trauma that we faced recently and perhaps continue to face we need to keep things SIMPLE…especially when it comes to addressing mental health.

The team at U Have My Word LLC offers our time-tested toolbox that positively impacts mental health and wellness. We have applied this toolbox with thousands of business leaders and their employees and their families and in their communities.

OUR ORGANIZATIONAL SERVICES include:

  • Facilitated MIT-based DIALOGUES that integrate the business agenda with emotionally authentic & meaningful conversations.

“Today, yesterday, last month, and the previous year has been challenging. It has been isolating. It is uncomfortable for us to talk and reach out for help. Until now. I was so happy to get this post card in the mail. It encouraged me to keep going. Breath through this. Know that someone somewhere cares.”  Meaghan O’Leary. Helping companies increase safety by preventing violence in the workplace. Dirigo Safety, LLC.

We all have experienced some form of post traumatic stress in our lives at some point & statistics show Pandemic-fueled trauma is rising. PTSD is no longer reserved for our military soldiers. We also know that PTSD is a significant concern for our first responders & now the conversation is opening on PTSD in our work environment. It’s uncomfortable for most of us to get the conversation started in a meaningful way so the healing can proceed. Postcards That Start Dialogue™ ease the conversation in a simple way.
Simple words that are visual on a card shared in the mail, at the dinner table, in a lunch box, on a zoom meeting can open the heart & soul so the mind feels safe & will cooperate into a meaningful conversation.

What do we offer?

We start simple by adding our Postcards From Home™ campaign. Research documents that by mailing Caring Cards within an integrated mental health service mental health increases & suicides are reduced.

WE use the power of the MAIL Moment!

What if Postcards From Home™ were found in student mailboxes on & off campus during exam time? What if the college student center provided FREE cards & stamps for students to mail home to their friends & family? What if we provided student activity groups supplies of cards to engage in their own community outreach program supporting first responders in their communities? How might that make an impact on mental health for everyone?

Table Talk™ placemats & Napkin Notes™

We keep the conversation moving forward with efficacy by applying MIT-based DIALOGUE Assumption Checking Disciplines that establish a safe container on the challenging agenda of mental health.

NEW in 2024

Online webinars offering research-based orientations, training & coaching on de-escalation & care.

Are We Aware of Religious & spiritual Experiences in a Mental Health Crisis?

Did you know that…

…religious & spiritual experiences are real in mental health crisis & noted in the DSM IV (as of 1994) & DSM V (2013)?

…the Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM) includes a V code entitled “Religious or Spiritual Problem” V62.89 and that spiritual competency & attention should be included in therapeutic care when these behaviors are presented?

…people around the world are being misdiagnosed, forced on meds & locked up in hospitals while having a religious or spiritual experience that requires a different protocol.
