Mental Health Resources

Life is hard. And here at Hawa, we aim to find ways to love and support you through the conversations have to the resources we are able to provide through our non-profit partners, research, or education. We know you could choose to be anywhere, so we are grateful you're here.

It all begins with self-love.

Hey there, beautiful soul.


If you’ve found your way here, take a breath—you’re exactly where you need to be. This space is a gentle reminder that love starts with you. The world can wait a moment while you tend to your heart, refill your spirit, and honor the person who keeps showing up every single day: yourself.

Remember, you are worthy of rest, joy, and peace. You deserve to take up space, to make time for what heals you, and to grow at your own pace. Keep choosing yourself, again and again. The most important kind of love is the one that begins within.

The differences between cognitive behavioral (CBT), dialectical behavioral (DBT), and acceptance and commitment (ACT) therapies.

All three therapies stem from cognitive-behavioral roots, emphasize mindfulness or awareness, and integrate acceptance with behavioral change to cope with life’s difficulties.

A collection of ACT, CBT, DBT, and other workbooks we've found useful to introduce self-guided learning. Working alongside a licensed professional is recommended.

Writers are human too. And we've found some of our favorite writers who have written books which are empowering, thought-provoking, and captivating.

Support Groups & Therapy

Therapy can feel scary at first because it asks you to face parts of yourself you’ve kept hidden or protected. But when you find the right therapist, that connection can open a space of hope, trust, and safety where healing finally feels possible.​
 

You can join circles anonymously to talk through what’s on your mind and feel supported by others who understand. It’s available 24/7 for those times you can’t reach a therapist or friend but just need someone to talk to.
