Adolescent Mental Health

Full disclosure on this one. I am trained to work with children and adolescents and started out working in that niche. I now only work with adults, the only exception is that I will work with ages 15 and up on OCD related behaviors/diagnosis. However, as a therapist and mom to three adolescents, I try to keep up with research and interventions. If you are a teenager OR if you love and care about a teenager in your life, it is worth giving Psychologist Lisa Damour a follow. I love this excerpt from a recent talk she gave on the subject of teen mental health.
