What is a Mental Health Bingo?
is a type of bingo with content related to mental health. Think of it as your standard bingo, but instead of numbers, there are words or phrases related to mental health or caring for one’s mental health. One can think of it as an activity that mental health practitioners can use to spread awareness on mental health, encourage clients to care for their mental health, or open up conversations on how one deals with their mental health.
Like the activity, the resources needed for mental health bingo depend on the practitioner's preference.
If you’re a mental health practitioner, think your clients will benefit from this activity, and don’t want to spend the time and effort looking for resources, you’ve come to the right place. We have mental health bingo templates just for you.
