Facing the Mental Health Crisis: Young Adults and Trauma with Liza Piekarsky

So really seeking out a therapist, becoming educated on it, what am I experiencing? I guess the first thing to do is kind of not demystify the way you're feeling, but recognize that the fear, particularly the fear and the uneasiness that the traumatic event has resulted in is understandable and natural, and then begin to work on it.
What’s really going on with today’s young adults? Steve Martorano tackles this pressing question in an eye-opening episode of Recovery Radio. Joined by Liza Piekarsky, a Community Relation Representative from Retreat West Palm Beach, the conversation dives deep into the mental health crisis affecting teenagers and young adults.

Liza also emphasizes the power of group support and community involvement, offering practical advice for anyone looking to make a positive change.
