There is a wealth of fantastic resources available on all aspects of mental health, delivered in a variety of formats to suit different preferences—bitesize videos, podcasts, blogs, books—there's something for everyone! Here are a few of my favourite resources that I often recommend to clients:

Therapy In a Nutshell developed and run by Emma McAdam a licensed family therapist. You will find lots of bite size mental health skills and information, YouTube videos and online courses covering everything mental health. https://therapyinanutshell.com/

You will also find pre-recorded guided meditations and relaxations on Emma’s Therapy in a Nutshell YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpuqYFKLkcEryEieomiAv3Q

I love a bit of Sophrology, its like a pumped up version of mindfulness as it involves an imagery and movement component that can help focus the mind and encourage you to stay with the exercise. Here is a video of Philip Carr-Gomm, a mindfulness practitioner, introducing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuvGksUCdJk&t=55s

Philip has also produced a beautiful book, Empower Your Life With Sophrology, full of sophrology exercises and you can access the audio files that accompany the book here: https://sophrology.institute/the-book

Dr Megan Ann Neff is a neurodivergent (Autistic-ADHD) psychologist, parent, and educator. She has created a wealth of mental health and wellness resources with the neurodivergent person in mind. You can access her wonderful resources on her website Neurodivergent Insights: https://neurodivergentinsights.com/

Embrace Autism is a fabulous site developed by Dr Natalie Engelbrecht and Eva Silvertant. It has a lot of Autism related resources, but you will also find a lot of self-tests/screeners, not just for Autism, but also ADHD, alexithymia, burnout, executive functioning, etc. https://embrace-autism.com/

Kelly Mahler is an Occupational Therapist and specializes in all things Interoception – the internal sense that helps you perceive and understand signals from inside your body, like hunger, thirst, and heart rate. Interoception is an important sense, and it is foundational for self-regulation, mental health and social connection. Many neurodivergent people have problems understanding what their body is telling them, but this can be problematic for neurotypicals too! Learn more here: https://www.kelly-mahler.com/
