The Philippine Mental Health Association or PMHA conducted an orientation for the psychology students of the University of the Immaculate Conception last November 27, 2020 via Zoom, aiming to make new students aware of several organizations outside the school that concerns mental health and psychology.
The orientation discussed how the students can take care of their mental health given the fact that they were psychology students. The speakers talked about what a psychologist’s role is in someone’s life and how one's profession possibly impacts society especially when the cases of mental health issues are on the rise.
PMHA was also able to explain what their organization is all about, its role, purpose, and goals. In fact, the president of Society of Aspiring Psychologists stated, “nindot gyud ang PMHA orientation kay naintroduce nila ang purpose sa ilahang organization ug ang guest na si Mr. Riyan Portuguez nag give syag tips na maka-inspire sa students [ the PMHA orientation was great because they were able to introduce the purpose of their organization and the guest Mr. Riyan Portuguez gave tips that inspired all the students]”
The event ended having each of the attendees acquire enough knowledge about their desired profession in the future.
