In this episode of Kids Health Cast, Dr. Andrea Temkin-Yu discusses the rising trends of anxiety and mental health disorders among teenagers. She highlights the practical and engaging strategies that parents can utilize to support their teens, enhance their emotional wellbeing, and create a nurturing environment in the face of today’s challenges. She reviews the impacts of social media and noticing the signs and symptoms that could impact a teen's mental health. She goes over her new workbook "Supporting Your Teen's Mental Health" which provides evidence-based solutions and practice exercises to help expand access to tools for families.
