When Valery Brosseau was diagnosed with bipolar 2 and borderline personality disorder in her early 20s it didn’t take long for her to realize that talking openly about her illness was healing for her and helped reduce stigma so other people could be open themselves.
Valery decided she want to devote her career to not only helping people who are living with mental illness but also working with businesses and other organizations to understand mental illness, how it affects their employees and how to create an open and stigma free workplace.
In November, Valery is launching her new company – Validate Mental Health - where she is partnering with people with different experiences and approaches to mental wellness.
