Coping with Intense Feelings: the Emotional Rollercoaster of Tweens and Teens
On
March 9th, at 7:30 pm
TBC member Dr Aaron Krasner and Tracey Masella, both of Silver Hill Hospital, will present a program entitled "Coping with Intense Feelings:the Emotional Rollercoaster of Tweens and Teens."
Moody teenagers are hard to understand. Sometimes it seems everything is OK, but as parents we worry about something more serious happening and we want to know more about it. This talk is geared toward helping parents better understand the emotional lives of teens. Specifically it will help parents who have some worries about their teens assess whether or not their teens need help by providing insight about clinical depression and anxiety
"
Dr. Krasner is Board Certified in both child/adolescent and adult psychiatry and currently serves as the service leader of the Adolescent Transitional Living Program at Silver Hill,
Ms. Masella currently serves as the Social Worker for the Adolescent Transitional Living Progam at Silver Hill.
