Swedish beauty brand FOREO is constantly breaking barriers to change the way we look at self-care. As October 10th marks World Mental Health Day, now the brand wants to highlight how important it is to take care of our mental health in collaboration Dr. Saliha Afridi, Clinical Psychologist and Managing Director at The Lighthouse Arabia. The mental health and wellness clinic is well-known in the region for providing quality psychological and psychiatric care to children, adults, couples and families. FOREO is partnering with Dr. Saliha Afridi, giving all of us a chance to ask questions directly to UAE’s leading clinical psychologist via @FOREO_mea Instagram page!

As mental health conditions tend to carry a certain stigma, FOREO is partnering with Dr. Afridi to support the drive towards changing the narrative and challenging the perception of mental health in the Middle East. FOREO followers have the chance to ask Dr. Afridi anything and everything about mental health, self-care, emotional and mental wellbeing, stress management (and more) before the 10th of October. Dr. Afridi’s answers to all our questions will go up on @FOREO_mea Instagram page on World Mental Health Day!

Dr. Saliha Afridi, PsyD. (US), Clinical Psychologist and Managing Director at The LightHouse Arabia commented: “Mental health has been stigmatized for far too long but the truth is that 1 out of 4 people struggle with mental health difficulties such as depression or anxiety. More awareness is needed about mental health and how it impacts our overall health and wellbeing. A state of wellbeing includes looking after, both, our physical and mental health and seeing them as part of one system”.
