Talk description: Nate Brantingham will be speaking about Mental Health for University Students focusing on practical real advice that can actually help. He will be discussing topics such as self-care (when it can help, and when it does not), depression, anxiety, loneliness, what treatment options exist, and what to do in a crisis. He has years of experience working with students at the University of Illinois campus and would like to share with you what he has learned about what helps students (and what does not). If you, or someone you know, would benefit from a discussion on mental health or if you would just like to be better equipped, then join us.
