Caring for your mental health during a public health crisis

In the midst of a global pandemic we feature three conversations with local experts about the impact this surreal moment in history is having on our mental health. How do we stay grounded when things can feel helpless? How do we take some degree of control back? How do we talk to our kids about what’s happening? And what about maintaining relationships from a distance?

An hourlong special on mental health during a public health crisis on this week’s KCPW Presents.

Guests:
Denia-Marie Ollerton, M.A., CMHC, Safe UT Supervisor with University Neuropsychiatric Institute
Sandra Buendia, Executive Director Educational Equity and Student Support, Salt Lake City School District
Lauren Weitzman, Director, University of Utah Counseling Center

Each week KCPW brings you an insightful and refreshing hour of analysis of the world around you. Sometimes, this is a special documentary produced in our studios, sometimes it’s a collaboration with our community partners and sometimes it’s a hand-picked piece, produced by an outside source. Produced by KCPW Studios
