In this episode I talk with experienced psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, and owner of Woodstream Wellness, Emilie Breeding. Together we go in depth about the mental health of children and teens. Nearly one in five young people in the United States experiences mental, emotional and behavioral conditions like ADHD, depression, anxiety, OCD and mood disorders.
We explore how to recognize when a child is struggling, the importance of early intervention, ways to break the stigma around mental health, and why partnership between families, schools, and healthcare providers is crucial. You’ll also hear her firsthand insights about common struggles, emerging trends, and what truly fosters resilience and healing for kids and teens.
Stats included in this episode are grounded in recent CDC findings on the prevalence, risk, and protective factors for mental health conditions in children and teens. They aim to provide listeners with both practical advice and deeper insight into the evolving landscape of pediatric mental health care.
