Neurology 101: Why do I feel this way?
For mental health, we need more real social interaction not less; unfortunately we have ended up with social distancing, which is exacerbating the anxiety that many kids already have. This presentation will cover a lot about the brain and how it works as best we know. It will encompass and explain how COVID 19 is impacting people. Join our guest speaker, author, and counselor, Jim Denning as he delivers information on this very important topic.
