Welcome to Wellness Psychological Services
Low mental health literacy, learned attitudes and beliefs about mental illness limit access to care for many people in Uganda and countries similar to it. This is a major challenge given that mental health and substance use challenges are leading cause of disability globally according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Many mental health challenges show warning signs in a person’s teen years and 20% of children worldwide have a mental illness.
Wellness Psychological Services Uganda (WellnessPsychUg) is committed to improving mental health and mental health services in Uganda and expanding its approaches beyond our borders. We believe that focusing public mental health efforts in Sub-Saharan Africa caters for the largest population which improves the mental health of all. We are working towards this in a variety of ways
