About this course
This foundation four hour session raises awareness of young people’s mental health. It covers:
- Some of the common mental health issues affecting young people, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders and psychosis.
- Skills to work more effectively with young people living with mental health issues
- Ways to support young people with a mental health issue and relate to their experiences
Who should attend?
This course is suitable for teachers, parents and carers supporting young people who want to gain the necessary skills to have a non-judgmental conversation, recognise the signs and symptoms of mental health issues and resources for help and support.
This is not a counselling or therapeutic session, purely around awareness so you can feel more empowered to help someone else.
