Siblings are My Superpower!

As I enjoy a few special days with my siblings, I am reminded of this summer's heartfelt talk by Karlyn Pleasants, PsyD about the “Well Siblings.” She spoke about the impact of mental illness on a sibling relationship and an individual’s development.

If you have a sibling or family member experiencing mental health challenges, and find yourself experiencing stress, guilt, fear, depression, anger or other painful emotions, do not hesitate to seek out support for yourself.
