OSF Mental Health Lunch and Learns, Recovery Cafe and Counseling Resources

OSF Psychological Services clinicians discuss free community events and mental health resources on Our Daily Show. The Lunch and Learn series includes a Nourishing Mind and Body session on October 16, focused on managing stress during the holidays, and a Recovery Cafe on November 20, with community resources, a panel of experts, refreshments and live music. The series is described as continuing through June 18, with registration information available through Eventbrite and OSF channels.

The conversation also covers coping with holiday stress, grief and family pressures; OSF counseling, assessments and support groups; and ways to connect with help. People can self-refer for counseling by calling 618-474-6240; some assessments require a doctor’s referral. The guests note that group offerings have different intake requirements.
