Join Newport Healthcare on June 14th for an important presentation, Are the Boys Alright? How to Help Your Young Male Clients Get Unstuck, Get Healthy, and Thrive with Elizabeth Jorgensen, CADC For young men, depression and anxiety often manifest in patterns of avoidance, withdrawal from school and social life, and displays of anger and aggression. What can appear to parents as poor or “bad” behaviors are often the telltale signs of severe distress. This workshop focuses on the unique presentation of boys when they are suffering, and explores how parents can open conversations with young men and how clinicians can engage them in treatment. https://lnkd.in/gE6QGXnG
