The year 2020 was challenging for most, particularly our younger generations with more children suffering from anxiety than ever before.

In our first episode for the new year, we chat to Dr Ric Haslam, Director of Mental Health, about how to talk to teens, what signs to look out for in each age group and next steps if tools like meditation or exercise don’t work.

You can find more information about mental health in infants and young children, and adolescents on our Kids Health Information website. Further information can also be found on Beyond Blue, Smiling Mind and Raising Children Network.
