Mental Health Awareness | Annie Ljungqvist | TEDxYouth@Upanga

The talk's goal is to raise the bar for psychology and generate meaningful conversations around mental health challenges as a taboo subject within our African context. My name is Annie Ljungqvist and I’m a trained therapist. I also co-founded Bloom Consultancy where we support both individuals and organisations with their wellness needs. In my 8 years of practice in the country, I spend my time tending to clients, raising awareness and conducting research within the African context. My core areas of skill are Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and I administer Ink Blot (Rorschach) tests as well as other assessments. My goal is to raise the bar for Psychology and generate meaningful conversations around this taboo subject within our context. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
