Babies are Like Smartphones: A Practical Pathway to Explaining Early Childhood Mental Health
Have you ever noticed that in most spaces mental health care seems to be all about older children or adults? Did you know that all mental health is built from the blueprints of infancy and early childhood? Join Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant Karen Wolf as she shifts the conversation in a practical direction. Babies are Like Smart Phones will give you real life information that you can take home, to families you work with, into schools, and right up to the halls of our legislative bodies. Our infants and toddlers belong in any space where mental health is being discussed, so let's work together to speak for them until they have the words!
