Around 20% of adolescents experience a mental health problem in any given year. 50% of mental health problems are established by age 14 and 75% by age 24.

It is impossible to cover all eventualities within this course, or to equip you with the knowledge and skills to appropriately diagnose and treat in unpredictable real life situations.
