At Marie Claire, we’re all about self-care whether that means a peaceful morning skincare routine, a revamped living space, a little online shopping moment, or anything in between. But the most important thing to remember is that the purpose of self-care is to support your mental health.
Thankfully, it’s becoming more and more acceptable to discuss mental healthcare openly, but the stigma hasn’t vanished completely. According to Mental Health America’s 2023 study, 5.44% of adults experience severe mental illness and 55% of adults with a mental illness have not received any treatment.
It’s vital to remember that mental healthcare is healthcare, and there’s no shame in asking for help when you need it, whether that means talking to a loved one or seeking therapy. Being vulnerable can be extremely difficult, and the process of finding a therapist can often make it more difficult. But there are organizations out there working to make mental healthcare more accessible, most notably

Luckily, BetterHelp’s top priority is to connect you with a therapist who will support your specific concerns, taking the burden of finding the right therapist off of your plate.
