A heartfelt thank you to Prof. Mark Jan N. Bergavera, CMHT, for leading a successful Psychological First Aid Training that has equipped our RMC psychology students with skills in providing empathetic and effective support during times of crisis.

We also extend our gratitude to Prof. Zedney B. Villados, RPsy, RPm, for sharing invaluable insights on the importance of creating safe, calming environments that foster resilience and hope. His emphasis on promoting safety, connectedness, and self-empowerment deeply enriched the training experience.

Our RMC psychology students gained invaluable skills in recognizing and supporting individuals in distress, learning how to Look, Listen, and Link with compassion and confidence. This training not only enhanced their knowledge but also built their self-efficacy to be mental health advocates in our communities.

As we near the end of 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝗮𝘆, let’s be reminded that caring for our mental health is not just something we do once a year; it is something that deserves our attention every single day. 💚

This year’s global theme, “𝘼𝙘𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙞𝙘𝙚𝙨 - 𝙈𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙡 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙝 𝙞𝙣 𝘾𝙖𝙩𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙝𝙚𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙀𝙢𝙚𝙧𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙞𝙚𝙨,” reminds us that when the world around us is shaken, tending to our inner world is just as vital as rebuilding what’s around us. 💛

Hindi biro ang inyong pinagdaanan upang marating ang puntong ito, mula sa masusing pag-aaral, walang tulog na gabi ng paghahanda, hanggang sa lahat ng sakripisyo na inyong tiniis. Ang bawat pagod at hirap ay nagbunga ngayon ng tagumpay na hindi lamang para sa inyo kundi para rin sa ating lipunan.

Ang inyong pagkakapasa ay hindi lang isang personal na milestone. Isa itong patunay na handa na kayong maging katuwang sa pagpapalakas ng kamalayan at serbisyo para sa mental health sa ating bansa. Sa inyong mga kamay nakasalalay ang mas maliwanag na bukas para sa maraming Pilipino na umaasa sa mas malasakit, mas may kaalaman, at mas may pusong propesyonal. 💙

Maging inspirasyon sana ang inyong tagumpay sa mga susunod na henerasyon ng mga estudyante at propesyonal sa larangan ng sikolohiya. Nawa’y patuloy kayong magbigay ng ilaw at pag-asa, at magsilbing sandigan ng mga taong nangangailangan ng gabay sa kanilang paglalakbay tungo sa kagalingang pangkaisipan.

Mabuhay ang mga bagong Psychometricians!

A Words of Appreciation to Mr. Zedney Villados, our Psychology Program Head

We, the RMC-JPS, are immensely proud beyond words and inspired without doubt. Congratulations on passing the 2025 Psychometric Licensure Examination, Sir Zed!

You're not just an exemplary professor who made every discussion as understandable as you can; you're also one of the people who made sure that we, psychies, experience the realities of being a mental health advocate.

Behind every success of our activities are the people who did their best to lift up our program. Your every hardwork reminds us that we also need to do our part as a student as we have a professor who always make sure we feel heard and valued.

Cheers to another success, Sir Zedney B. Villados, RPm, RPsy!
