Mental health is an increasingly significant discussion as nations around the world heal from the COVID pandemic, and new practitioners have begun to rise to the occasion.
Dr. Tomi Mitchell has been a self-employed business owner for 10 years, with a passion for helping people heal and nurture their most crucial asset: their mind.
“I help try to make mental health a priority for everyone. We should all do a checkup on a regular basis. I’m a physician but I don’t want to focus on clinical practice any more, as frankly I’m tired of sometimes having to give quick fixes to problems that are much deeper.
Dr. Tomi Mitchell has been deeply aware of the pain points many people in society have, and has empathy for those struggling with self-care, self esteem, anxiety, depression and so much more. She explains, “This has been a very personal process. I had to overcome so many challenges in my life,and it weighed on my mental health. Being told from an early age, into adulthood, that I wasn’t any good, really weighed on me, especially when it came from people who were supposed to be teaching and encouraging me.”
“I found myself not being listened to, being gaslighted and received poor care in the healthcare system, a system that I had made an oath to serve… Multiple traumatic experiences from less than ideal medical treatment, coupled with my frustration of working so hard for everyone else at the expense of my physical and mental health, led me to a breakdown.”
“I realized that I needed to stop, reflect, take care of myself, and rediscover who I was, and what I really wanted. I had to let go of the guilt associated with finally putting myself first. I encourage my clients to do this in a healthy way as well.”
Dr. Tomi Mitchell rose to her position as a respected self-help authority when she assessed her talents, skills, and passions and realized that she wasn’t using them to her full potential, and wasn’t living a truly authentic life.
Dr. Tomi Mitchell serves others through one-on-one coaching, group coaching, online courses, VIP coaching, and online programs. She’s also working on creating a daily planner, which she plans to have printed by the end of summer 2021.
“When you’re feeling burnt out and no longer sure of your purpose; when you’re struggling with stress, anxiety, low self esteem and depression, but you’re still putting a front that you have it all together; when you’re trying too hard to be the perfect parent-spouse-professional; when you’re tired of trying to figure out how to be your “best self… that’s when I’m available to serve.”
