What is 'normal' development for adolescents?

Broadcast date: 1/20/2015

Adolescence is a confusing time emotionally, physically and mentally for teenagers, and their parents. How do we determine whether certain behaviors are part of normal development or 

symptoms of a potential mental health concern? Tune in Tuesday for a conversation about the wide range of potential paths adolescent development can take, when or if parents need to be concerned, and how to hire the most effective professional if help becomes necessary.

Elizabeth Barrett is a wife, mother, licensed marriage-family therapist, educator, eavesdropper, emotion worker, and mental health consultant. She uses all of these skills to address the subjects that we all struggle with in this conversation with the Reluctant Therapist.
