The Power of Peer Support in Mental Health: A Chat with Brian Bailys

The one thing that I really encourage people to do is make sure they get the right kind of peer supporter.
What if the key to better mental health lies in the support of others who truly understand what you're going through? In this episode of The Mental Health Toolbox Podcast, Patrick Martin sits down with Brian Bailys, the CEO and co-founder of Thrive Peer Support, to explore this very idea. Brian shares his personal journey and how it led him to create an organization dedicated to offering peer support services to those in need.
You'll hear about the transformative power of peer support and why having someone who 'gets it' can make all the difference in your recovery journey. Brian also talks about the impact of telehealth on mental health services, making them more accessible to everyone, no matter where they are. He highlights the importance of proper training and certification for peer supporters, ensuring they provide the best possible help.
With heartwarming success stories from Thrive Peer Support, like individuals securing their first apartment or car, this conversation is both inspiring and practical. If you're curious about how peer support can play a role in mental health recovery or looking for actionable advice, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in and discover how community and connection can pave the way to a healthier, happier life.
