While these terms are often used interchangeably, mental health and mental illness are not the same -- and this misunderstanding can cause us to overlook the signs that someone needs help. This one-hour seminar provides an accessible guide to understanding what mental health is, the categories of mental illness, and how they’re treated. Separate myths & facts with a licensed therapist.
