It's #WorldMentalHealthDay Nearly 1 in 7 people live with a #MentalHealth condition. People with lived experience can help transform mental health care at every stage: from designing services to delivering and improving them. By collaborating and working together, experts with lived experience, and people working in mental health systems, policy, and research can design care that is person-centred, rights-based and rooted in dignity. Make community-based services stronger, support continuity of care and make every conversation count bit.ly/4yJjvBc

We remember. 🇺🇸❤️ This morning, the @VTCorpsofCadets and honored guests held a formation on Upper Quad to remember the first responders, survivors, and those who lost their lives 25 years ago on Sept. 11, 2001.

We discuss both transdiagnostic interventions (cognitive behavioral therapy, the Unified Protocol for Children/Adolescents, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions) that can be used to target emotion regulation in ADHD,

and interventions for youths with ADHD that either have been found to improve emotion regulation outcomes or that directly target emotion regulation or dysregulation for youths with ADHD and their families.
