You are invited to a special event with Dr. Lisa Damour, the school’s 2025 Northrop and Blake Classes of 1955 speaker.
Damour is the author of the New York Times bestsellers “Untangled,”“Under Pressure” and “The Emotional Lives of Teenagers.” She co-hosts the “Ask Lisa” podcast, works in collaboration with UNICEF and is recognized as a thought leader by the American Psychological Association. She is a regular contributor to The New York Times and CBS News and the creator of Untangling 10to20, a digital library to support teens and those who care for them.
Headlines about the youth mental health crisis make it a challenging time to be a parent. In the wake of the pandemic, teen suffering has worsened and parents are wondering where the line is between typical angst and a serious mental health concern.
Damour shares practical strategies and meaningful perspectives on actively supporting child and adolescent mental health and helping our children safely weather their emotional storms. As a trusted expert in child and adolescent mental health, Damour brings her informed, accessible approach to one of the most critical conversations of our time.
