Webinar May 31st, 2022, with McLean Hospital in Belmont, MA. Growing up is difficult—it always has been. But more recently, the challenges that kids and teens face seem even more daunting.
* From cyberbullying to digital learning, many issues they encounter are new and uncharted territory for parents and guardians. In addition, late teenage years are known to be the time when mental illnesses are most likely to manifest.

* In this previously recorded session, Dr. Lisa W. Coyne discusses the importance of mental wellness in children and adolescents and answers audience questions about child and teen mental health.
