All children and teens experience a broad range of emotions and face certain challenges while growing up, which may result in certain behaviors. When are those emotions and behaviors reason enough to seek mental health support?

On January 10, Cartwheel hosted Marcus Cherry, Ph.D. for a conversation that provided general guidelines for parents and caregivers on when to seek mental health support.

In this webinar, we cover:

Key factors to keep in mind when considering whether your child’s behaviors or emotions are developmentally appropriate or indicate a mental health concern
Who to talk to when you’re concerned
Resources for how to find a mental health professional
