What is a Mental Health Coordinator?
An MHC is an interdisciplinary creative professional supporting responsible and compelling portrayal of mental health and challenging or traumatic themes while incorporating safeguards for cast and crew’s mental wellness. This includes individualized training, dramaturgy, assessment, cultural intervention, choreography, and crisis management.
We work alongside creative professionals to ensure respectful and accurate portrayals of mental health and challenging themes. From providing personalized guidance to crisis preparedness, we ensure authenticity and sensitivity in storytelling through a blend of therapeutic insight and artistic expertise. Our role is to support the responsible depiction of mental health across various mediums, fostering a deeper understanding of these important subjects.
