This course aims to explore the impact of mental health terminology on society, highlighting the trend of using such terms as hyperbole and its implications on the glorification of mental illness. The goal is to provoke reflection on how to preserve the intended meaning of these terms to better communicate our needs effectively. The teaching method involves a 17-minute TEDx talk by Lauren Hayze, a master's student in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, focusing on complex trauma disorders and resiliency in marginalized communities. This course is intended for individuals interested in mental health advocacy, trauma awareness, and the accurate use of mental health terminology.
