Teen Mental Health Webinar tomorrow
Please join K-State Research and Extension tomorrow, Nov. 1, for a noon webinar focused on teen mental health. The webinar will focus on the critically important topic of teen mental health and will air live at 12:10 p.m. via Zoom.
This webinar will be presented by Christine D. Perez, licensed clinical professional counselor and director of Crisis Services at Crawford County Mental Health Center; and Erin Tynon, family consumer science agent Pottawatomie County.
The "Teen Stress and Anxiety: How Worried Do Parents Need to Be?" program will examine the current state of teen mental health and decipher for parents what is normal teen stress versus when professional help may be needed. Parents want to say the right thing when their child talks about their stresses, but sometimes it is hard to find the words. This will give parents scripts and strategies to talk about these tricky topics. Perez will be available to answer any of those hard questions parents may have.
All webinars will be recorded and links/resources will be posted on the Living Well Wednesday website.
