An edge on mental health.
Talk Thairapy is a mental health collective that uses a one-for-one business model that provides affordable mental health services while simultaneously bringing dignity through free haircuts and professional hair care services to boys in Southwest Atlanta.
Talk Thairapy started as a peer-directed national organization that empowered barbers and barbershop patrons to speak honestly and candidly about mental health and wellness, to educate others, and encourage people to seek necessary medical help and preventative services.
Knowing your heart.
Individuals experiencing depression are at high risk for developing high blood pressure. Depression increases the risk for uncontrolled blood pressure, as well as stroke and heart attacks. Have your blood pressure checked today by a Talk Thairapy volunteer.
