How are YOU Today?

How are you today? One of the most common greetings we hear, maybe more than once everyday. 

In view of raising the bar for people's awareness of themselves (self-awareness) and importance of the "little things" in our lives (mindfulness), we have a 2-day experiential exhibition catered to students and staff of our university for personal growth and perhaps may come in handy to help a friend in need.

On these two dates stipulated below, we will be at WISMA HELP and WISMA ELM for 5 hours (10am-3pm) with exciting activities just for you. 

So, How are you today?

WMHD 2014 Promotional Video

In about two weeks' time, the air surrounding the Center for Psychological and Counseling Services (CPCS) will be illuminated  in view of our 3-day Open Day from 8th October until 10th October 2014  in conjunction with World Mental Health Day 2014 to raise awareness about schizophrenia and other related mental health issues.

If you've read our previous posts, the theme that CPCS is featuring this year is: Breaking Stigma, Bridging Lives. Our team of clinical psychologists, counselors and Masters in Clinical Psychology trainees are working hand-in-hand to tailor the best experiential exhibition for all of you who are keen to understand more about the stigma encapsulating mental health and strategies to bridge communication gaps surrounding mental health concerns. 

Meanwhile, we have prepared a short clip to publicize our event from now leading to the launch on October 8, 2014. A summary of the intended meaning for this production that was inspired by Draw My Life will be posted shortly before the event itself. 



If you have any questions regarding our event, please drop us an e-mail at cpcsathelp@gmail.com or call us at 03-20961212.

Thank you for watching the video. Your participation in this endeavor to create a better climate for mental health awareness is greatly appreciated!
