HEALTH RESOURCES

Mental health concerns often do qualify as “mental illness” per se.  Many mental health concerns simply involve the pursuit of a positive, enjoyable life style.  When professional mental health care assistance is being considered, we strive to share brief, practical information to assist to understand what you may be dealing with and attempt to point you the where you where you might wish to start when  considering your options.

SELF-HELP ADVICE

To assist families and young people engaged in sports and competitive activities, we address various mental health topics that may typically be involved with young people engaged in sports and other competitive activities.  Self help efforts can be conducted independently and/or in conjunction with professional mental health care assistance. We have selected a number of mental health topics that might typically be associated with youth competition and competitive sports.  We will be adding additional topics on a continuous basis.
