Beyond the Signs: Understanding Teen Mental Health and Knowing How to Help (Homeschool Rally Edition)

Tuesday, January 12 at 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm

Another parent-session of our Tuesday Homeschool Rally (new name!) happening at the same time as our 3 age group sessions on Tuesday the 12th of January from 12:30-1:30!

Recognizing early warning signs, building resilience, and knowing when to seek support

The teen years bring real emotional and behavioral changes, and they can be hard to read. For homeschooling families, the parent is often the adult who notices first. How do you tell typical growing pains from something that needs more support?

In this practical workshop, parents learn to recognize early signs of anxiety, depression, ADHD-related struggles, and disordered eating, and how these can affect a teen’s self-esteem, identity, and daily life. We cover how to support emotional well-being at home, talk about hard feelings, and help teens build healthy coping skills and a greater tolerance for stress. We also discuss how to respond when concerns come up, how to recognize safety risks, and when and how to find professional help.

Parents leave with clear, practical steps for supporting their teen’s mental health and knowing when to reach out.

Presented by Christopher Mooney, LCSW, and Tasha Casey, LMSW, of Lumen Therapy Collective.
