I have the pleasure of introducing the board of SeizingPsych - meet Kristan Kanyuch, Co-Founder & Executive Director. As a caregiver who has navigated her son’s schizophrenia diagnosis and recovery, Kristan leads with lived experience, so families never have to face mental illness alone.

Caregiving is a powerful act of love, but you can’t pour from an empty cup. Check out our resource of the week diving into practical for caregivers to combat burnout and activate your body’s ability to recharge. Remember: #selfcare isn't selfish; it’s maintenance.

Caregivers caring for those living with mental illness need care too. 1/5 caregivers spend >40h per week JUST caring for their loved one. Hear more from SeizingPsych co-founder and help us raise $2,600 in 26 days to support caregiver mental wellness! 💙 Donate at give.seizingpsych.com/2026care

Caring for someone with mental illness can be exhausting, isolating, and often invisible. 💚 To start 2026 & #MentalWellnessMonth, we’re raising $2.6K in 26 days to expand programs for these caregivers! Help give the support they deserve at give.seizingpsych.com/2026care
