Overview
In this session we discuss how adolescence is perceived and how to navigate interpersonal interactions in a way that promotes emotional wellbeing. This is done in the context of the types of changes adolescents experience socially, psychologically and biologically. Content centred on how to improve resilience and communication will explore the benefits of talking openly about mental health, developing a support network and managing expectations.

- Feel more confident holding and/or instigating a conversation around mental health and wellbeing
- Have an understanding of how to foster resilience in adolescents
