The New Jersey resident is the host of Your Mental Health Talk Radio, a show that broadcasts for one hour, two days a week; Tuesday's and Thursday's at 8 PM EDT live for one hour.
Found at www.blogtalkradio.com/yourmentalhealth the show addresses a wide variety of topics with the intention of helping listeners address their personal issues.
"We talk about so many various topics of mental health and emotional well-being," Foreman said. "It's a show to help people and get the word out."
Foreman, 39, said she started the show two years ago -- then using a paid Web site -- after battling depression that followed the death of her son.

"My father is a family doctor and he didn't even know where I should turn to for help," Foreman said.
While sitting in the waiting rooms at doctors' offices, Foreman said she realized that people going through similar mental health problems were what most would consider "normal," and they came from all walks of life.
She started the show as a way to help people who might otherwise turn to self-medicating through drugs and alcohol. She wanted to feature top professionals in various fields of mental health and began scouring bookstores for works author
