Description

Pediatric mental health stigma – misconceptions and fear of judgement, creates barriers to seeking and obtaining care.  This can often lead to the marginalization of children and families and the perpetuation of symptoms and distress. This session includes strategies to normalize mental health concerns in the primary care setting, such as using certain terminology, ways to introduce a provider in WHOs, and appointment strategies to address potential self-stigma. Attendees will be empowered to use these recommendations in their own practice to help decrease mental health care stigma with children, families, and within care systems.
