Please join us for a presentation about Dr. Damour’s latest book, The Emotional Lives of Teenagers: Raising Connected, Capable, and Compassionate Adolescents. In this talk she will address the fact that adolescent mental health isn't about feeling good, calm, or relaxed, but about having the right feelings at the right times, and knowing how to manage those feelings effectively. Dr. Damour will offer guidance on how to help teens open up, and how to keep teens from being overwhelmed by their emotions or feeling at the mercy of their moods. Dr. Damour will provide concrete strategies for supporting teens as they manage their feelings at home, with their peers, online, and at school.
The event is generously sponsored by The MCA.
