Examine Teen Grief at the Ocean County Library Stafford Branch Dec. 11
STAFFORD TOWNSHIP – Emotional depths are inescapable during adolescence. But knowing, caring support can make them easier to bear. Learn how to be the shelter in your teen’s inner storm during “Adolescent Grief and Depression” at the Ocean County Library Stafford Branch, 6 PM Wednesday, December 11.
The aim of the presentation is to educate and provide practical interventions that can support adolescents who are navigating depression in times of bereavement.
The program will address manifestations of grief in adolescents in contrast to those of adults, and how it may be mistaken for depression. You’ll learn the valuable role of development, social pressures, and coping mechanisms that shape the ways that adolescents grieve.
The talk is presented in partnership with Hackensack Meridian Health by behavioral health residents of Jersey Shore University Medical Center, Neptune, and Ocean University Medical Center, Brick.
