I (Saz Thomas) talk with Bryony Ashcroft a mental Health nurse who currently works with Teenagers about how we as parents understand and help our Teenagers through their Mental Health Journey.  Parenting post Pandemic throws up a whole new set of challenges for young people and us parents. In this social media world our teens are more surrounded by voices, opinions, information and people meaning theres a door into their lives we don't always know about. 
Bryony and I talk through
- How a teens Brain is growing and how it affects behaviour
- How to communicate with your Teen to develop Healthy Neuro pathways 
- The affects of social media on Teens mental health 

This is Part 1/2 because i got so much from my time with Bryony i didn't want to cut any.  Join us next week as we talk more in detail about our Mental Health as Parents and How to walk your teenager through Self Harming.

If you need more support or information please check out www.youngminds.org.uk or if you're a parent contact me Saz Thomas i would love to help you find some next steps.

You've Got This

Love Saz x
