Did you know that men are more likely to commit suicide than women? Mental Health America cites data that more than 6 million men in America experience symptoms of depression and more than 2 million experience an anxiety disorder. And yet, fewer men seek mental health support than women, much less to openly talk about it with peers.

Tony Johannsen is a Counsellor, Psychotherapist, Men’s Behavior Change Facilitator and one our Workplace Mental Health Specialists at WMHI. He is also a Musician, very much into rock and roll which is a common area of interest for men so when he became counsellor, understanding the men's space where there's substance abuse and family violence. It was a natural path for Tony to work towards supporting and assisting men, helping them understand the root cause of some issues if it stems from a mental health problem while trying to mitigate negative effects of these issues such as getting into trouble with law or the legal system.

Watch this episode of Mental Wealth TV as Peter Diaz (CEO, WMHI) tackles the issue of men's mental health with Tony, what are the issues, how to identify the causes and possible solutions and interventions to help men cope.
