Excited to discuss social media landscape, risks and benefits for psychiatrists, patients and youth at #APAAM24! No matter our personal opinion, we must understand the pros and cons for mental health awareness!

New study: 18% of kids mental health visits are paid for completely by families. Higher income families use more self-pay care, likely contributing to inequality in access. Honored to work on this with @herlab_equity and @NicoleBensonMD urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-…
