Anxiety
Anxiety affects 40 million adults in the US and 25% of o children 13-18. This number has tripled since the Covid-19 pandemic. Fear is one on human’s most primal defense mechanisms (“fight or Flight”) intended to warn us of impending danger. In people who suffer from anxiety, this fear is excessive, uncontrollable and disproportionate to the actual risk.
Lets Plan a Conversation
Bullying
One out of every five students reports being bullied. Bullying can be verbal, physical, sexual, and cyber-type. Children are often bullied because of their physical appearance, race/ethnicity, gender, disability, religion, and sexual orientation. Being bullied has many negative effects on the child such as, low self-image, social isolation, anxiety, depression, and somatic issues.
Depression
Depression is a common but serious mood disorder that often starts in adulthood and interferes with person’s basic daily functioning. Depression is often associated with feelings of deep sadness, hopelessness, emptiness, and loss of interest in previously enjoyable activities.
