West Gippsland Libraries have partnered with registered Counselling psychologist Alison Fonseca to provide a mini-series called Looking After Your Mental Health. This 5-part series covers a range of topics, and we’ll share a new video each month.
In this video, Linda and Alison will discuss mental health in children and teenagers, and how and where to seek help.
