Abstract:
This webinar is for coaches who want to learn about signs and symptoms of mental health concerns in collegiate student-athletes athletes. You will learn about common mental health concerns and unique ways in which these difficulties present in athlete populations. You will also learn risk and protective factors for mental health and well-being. High-risk mental health concerns, such as non-suicidal self-injury and suicide will be discussed. You will learn strategies to have effective conversations about mental health. Finally, we review information relevant to your own mental health and well-being as a coach, as it is important to be sure to take care of yourself, too!
