More than half of U.S. children and teens are struggling with mental health issues after the pandemic. As if that number wasn’t troubling enough, only 8% are likely to get help. The reasons are many: Self-stigma. Little understanding of what to do or where to turn. Limited access to aid. Fortunately, therapists, Employee Assistance Programs and other mental health providers are expanding their services and reaching out to younger populations. However, it is difficult to deliver widespread counseling to children in an epidemic of need. One path that is proving to be successful is to also provide support for those closest to youngsters — their parents.
