I experienced several mental health challenges (anxiety, depression, psychosis, mood changes, trauma, stigma) as a young teenager, and I have finally reached a place in my life where I can cope with it all. Throughout my struggles, I was fortunate to have had very supportive parents who helped me navigate my mental health challenges. I took note of the different ways they supported me and which of those ways were most effective. I am now here to provide insight and real lived experience from a young person's perspective to parents who have a teen or young adult struggling with their mental health. I want you to know that you are not alone along this journey, and that I have so much respect for you for reading this because it shows that you genuinely want to help your child find happiness. Let's take the first step of hope & healing, and we can book a time to connect!
