Mission
At Imagine Me, our mission is to erase mental health stigma and empower individuals, families, and communities through education, advocacy, and compassionate support. We are dedicated to providing accessible, culturally responsive resources that promote healing and resilience for those affected by trauma, substance use disorders (SUD), and mental health challenges.
Through podcasts, books, instructional courses, workforce training, and consulting, we equip individuals and organizations with the knowledge and tools to foster mental wellness, equity, and systemic change.
At the heart of our work is a commitment to inclusion, empowerment, and breaking barriers—ensuring that behavioral health support is not a privilege, but a right for all. Together, we can reimagine mental health care and create a future where everyone has the opportunity to heal and thrive.
Values
Our work is guided by a commitment to equity, empowerment, and healing. These core values shape our approach to behavioral health education, advocacy, and support.
Equity & Inclusion
We believe that mental wellness is a right, not a privilege. We are committed to dismantling systemic barriers and ensuring that behavioral health resources are culturally responsive, accessible, and inclusive for all individuals and communities.
Education & Empowerment
Knowledge is power. We provide emprically-based education through podcasts, books, training, and consulting to equip individuals and organizations with the tools to create meaningful change.
Compassion & Connection
Healing happens in relationships. We center lived experiences, trauma-informed care, and community-driven support, fostering spaces where people feel seen, heard, and valued.
Advocacy & Social Change
We challenge stigma, outdated narratives, and systemic inequities in behavioral health. Our work promotes policy change, workforce development, and community engagement to create a more just and supportive world.
Growth & Resilience
We honor the strength and resilience of individuals on their healing journey. Through education, training, and personalized support, we encourage continuous learning, self-discovery, and transformation.
These values are the foundation of everything we do. We are committed to fostering a world where mental health is prioritized, stigma is erased, and healing is accessible to all.
