Welcome to Hot Topics! Gabrielle Crichlow and returning guest Kellina Powell tackle the tough discussion of mental health.

Who is Kellina Powell?
Kellina Powell is passionate about guiding and supporting people with disabilities to try different tools and strategies to reach their fullest potential, especially within the deaf community. She passionately supports people in achieving success and, drawing from her unique experiences in hearing and deaf communities, advocates fervently for people with disabilities to have their voices heard and their mental health improved. With a bachelor's degree in psychology and a post-graduate certificate in mental health and addiction, she has sound knowledge of the brain's functions, providing further insight and understanding in assessing individuals with mental health issues. She is well-versed in various counseling strategies and techniques for administering mental health support. Her experiences and training have led her to be open-minded and innovative, developing excellent communication and listening skills, making her a competent and suitable coach. As the Deaf Queen Boss, she aims to teach others how to be inclusive and change the approach to mental health among people with disabilities and within the deaf community. Growing up, she never had a therapist, teacher, or role model who looked like her and could relate to what it was like to be deaf, who could help her navigate life with different strategies for a deaf person in a hearing world. She believes using our voices to overcome our issues and support each other is essential.
