Kids’ Mental Health

Text Kristen your thoughts or feedback about the show

If there’s any silver lining to COVID, it’s that mental health is in the spotlight now more than ever. And it’s not just grownups who need to ensure their mental well-being. We need to care for our childrens’ mental health as well.

Dr. Nerissa Bauer, behavioral pediatrician and entrepreneur in Carmel, Indiana, joins us this week to share suggestions and clues on what to look for and how to approach anxiety in kids… becoming our very own emotion detectors! Spoiler alert - if we don’t get it right the first time, our children are sure to give us plenty of future opportunities to keep trying!

Dr. Bauer left academia in December 2018 after burnout. She has a part-time behavioral health practice. She created TEACH ME ADHD, an online course for families, is the host of the Let’s Talk Kids Health LIVE show on behavioral health & parenting, and is the CEO of Let’s Talk Kids Health, LLC.  She is also a spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics.
