Welcome to BROS GLOBAL. I'm Dr Simon Yam PhD, founder of BROS GLOBAL, professional counsellor, a Mental Health First Aid® Licensed Instructor, and a mental health and suicide prevention advocate for men around the world. 

​

I commit my life to supporting and empowering men to find peace, have the knowledge and power to seek counselling and support for mental health, and find the courage and resilience to fight the stigma of male depression and suicide in diverse communities - across racial, cultural, socio-economic, age, sexual orientation, religious or health differences.

​

I come from a lived experience perspective, so I get where many who are struggling with anxiety, depression and/or suicidal thoughts come from. I am a deeply passionate about helping people through counselling, providing life skills to manage mental health challenges, and offering training to communities and organisations in Mental Health First Aid and other men's mental health and suicide prevention skills development programs.

 

BROS is an acronym for 'Brothers Reaching Out in Solidarity'. Because mental health does not discriminate, the support spans globally for all men who identify as peers for one another.

 

BROS GLOBAL's motto is to encourage men around the world to BE THE BETTER MAN, ALWAYS. Browse through the site, and follow us on Facebook page to receive daily nuggets for a better, happier and more fulfilling life.
