Mental Health and Children
When it comes to mental health issues in children and teens, how should we care for them? Too often, there is a stigma attached to these disorders and families suffer alone. Psychologist Matthew Stanford helps us understand many common mental health conditions our kids face so we can offer the grace, hope and support they need. It’s all ahead on this encore edition of Equipped with Chris Brooks!
