James Nicholas Kinney Announces Official Launch of Next-Gen Mental Health Platform AdvertisingMentalHealth.com

No-Cost Resources Developed to Support Global Community of Professionals, Organization Aims to Destigmatize Mental Health Issues & Increase Overall Awareness

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--James Nicholas Kinney, a renowned chief people officer known as “The Ad Industries Therapist” and America’s mental health motivator, announces the official launch of AdvertisingMentalHealth.com (AMH). AMH is a groundbreaking platform dedicated to providing free mental health resources and support for the global community, with a special focus on the health, wellness, and productivity of employees across industries.

The AMH platform is simple to navigate and implement for daily use, whether for personal, company, or organization-wide use. With an easy sign-up process and member login portal, AMH ensures members have access to approachable, compassionate, and useful resources just a click away.

"Modern day employees across all industries are facing unbelievable mental health and wellness issues both in their personal and professional lives,” said James Nicholas Kinney. “We designed AMH to provide people from all walks of life with the resources they need to maintain their mental well-being and thrive in their careers. Given our busy lives and schedules, not everyone can afford professional mental health services or even has the time to explore therapy services. AMH is a solution that was developed with everyone in mind to provide resources at no cost so everyone has the opportunity to build healthy, meaningful, and passionate lives.”

Professional industries and organizations that can benefit from AMH’s free and easily implementable platform include: Financial Services, Technology, Healthcare, Advertising, Marketing, Public Relations, Communications, Food & Beverage, Hospitality, Government Agencies, Professional Career Services, Nonprofit, Agriculture, Education, Consulting, Law, Event Management, Human Resources, IT, Accounting, and so much more.

“I am so extremely proud to be a part of AMH, a platform and community offering free mental health resources,” said Nancy Luong, AMH Advisory Board Member & Digital Program Manager at Salesforce. “How we show up for our mental health - from the thoughts that we have and stories we tell ourselves to how we treat ourselves kindly - impacts every part of our life from work to our own homes. As an Asian American woman, mental health is extremely important to me because it’s a topic we didn’t discuss growing up. Instead, we often swept things under the rug and coped with our feelings internally. Fortunately now, mental health is being normalized and it’s so important we support one another in this journey of taking care of our minds.”

“I’ve been fortunate to work for some of the world’s most recognizable brands and companies across the advertising, entertainment, and retail sectors, and no matter what the industry I find the same issue always persists: How to build a creative culture and support my team’s mental health and wellness,” said Jean Batthany, AMH Advisory Board Member & Fractional Chief Creative Officer. “AMH offers something unlike anything in the market right now, a platform dedicated to offering resources, education and programming to employees, managers, and C suite executives alike at no cost. Any company or organization can benefit and demonstrate their commitment to creating a healthy and happy work culture.”
