Mentor Learning Series: Empowering Mentees: Practical Approaches to Manage Anxiety in Youth

Dr. Werntz will describe the important role that anxiety plays in our lives, and how it can make life more challenging. Mentors will learn the common symptoms of anxiety and how our “anxious brain” can make us act in ways that aren’t aligned with our values.

She will also cover effective, evidence-based strategies for supporting youth experiencing anxious feelings and worries.
