​Words from Happy Clients!

"Mental health affects everything, how we think, feel, and act, and determines how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Love Your Mental Health's Founder Kim Pita inspires us to find ways to use our creativity to practice mindfulness and self-care in our everyday lives. She motivates us to love our mental health rather than fear it by sharing her own story.​"

​Mary Crean, Marketing Director, Nassau Financial Group

​“Kim created a safe space for our students to engage in contemplative practices during our self-care and mindfulness retreat this fall semester. Specifically, her use of sound meditation cultivated an opportunity to become still, centered, and peaceful. Many students expressed gratitude for this experience.”

"I recommend Kim Pita to any author trying to take their good book/manuscript on the journey of becoming a great book. Kim is straightforward, easy to work with, flexible, and insightful about what an author needs and how to best work with them. She helped me throughout the entire process of creating my memoir A Fighting Chance from the beginning in the pre-planning stage until the end."

Daniel Blanchard, Best-Selling Author, Coach, Teacher and Leader​

She easily connects with both employees and customers through meaningful conversations and dialogue, which provides us with invaluable insight in our company evolution.”
