Being honest and talking about difficult things is tough! But it's also the first step towards getting the support you need. Talking also reduces the stigma around seeking support!

On the 2nd Day of Christmas ReSET told me about... 2 Professors had an idea 💡🎓
It all started with a conversation between Professors Essi Viding and Pasco Fearon. They saw the growing need for adolescent mental health support, and imagined a school-based, preventative, transdiagnostic intervention.
