Episode 168. Helping the Youth of the Church with Mental Illness with Dr. Kyle Jones
Aug 05, 2024
Many youth in the church struggle and it can be difficult to know if their struggles are caused by typical teenager life or if mental health care is needed. As a parent and youth leader in the church there are many things we can do to help them with both.
This week I sat down with Dr. Kyle Jones to discuss how we can do that. As a family physician at the University of Utah, father, and one who has struggled with his own mental health he shares 3 tips for adults to help youth in the church with their mental health.
