WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO
WEAR YOUR HEART ON YOUR SLEEVE
Because sometimes it's easy to feel that staying quiet is the only option. Providing clothing with emotive language on it was a way to express yourself as well as tie in with our message to reduce the stigma of therapy. We work with charities and companies to encourage people to talk - not only because it helps - but because it is powerful.

WE WANT TO HELP YOU
GET OVERR IT
Suppressing emotion can be damaging both physically and psychologically but it is one of, if not THE most socially acceptable ways of handling stress and has been for decades. Learning to express and regulate emotion is the best way to avoid outbursts, often caused by a build up of suppressed emotion. After a personal journey with therapy I really saw the difference it had made to my choices in life and want to encourage as many others to do it as I can. However, whilst specialists tackle the supply and demand issue, we first want to tackle the stigmas around therapy so that self-referral increases.
The same way determination correlates with success rate for your physical health is the same way it correlates for your mental health. We want to bring that discussion to more tables.
HOW DO THE TWO COMBINE?
OVERR WAS CREATED
Fashion is one way people express themselves and it is widely reported that when you believe you look good you also feel good. When we decided to push the message out about expressing yourself and reducing the stigma of talking about your feelings we decided that a good way to do this would be to let people express themselves through their clothing choices first - Check out our Overr It Hoodie for a glimpse of how we encourage you to express yourself
