It is no surprise that more and more kids are experiencing stress and anxiety. With the recent current events including COVID-19, these last few years have been stressful for everyone. As kids get older and begin to take on more responsibility and experience more changes in life, stress becomes more apparent. Today we are going to talk about strategies that provider can incorporate into clinic, the right questions to ask patients and families, and talk about the post pandemic stress epidemic that we are seeing in kids. 

 This episode is part of our 12-episode mental health series where we aim to give primary care providers useful tools and relevant clinical information to support them in the care of patients with mental health needs.

Today I am happy to be speaking with Dr. Jenna Glover and Dr. Jessica Hawks.
