Mental Health, Addiction, and the Family: When to Seek Support and How to Intervene for Complex Concerns


What holds a family together when life becomes complicated?

This webinar will delve into clinical expertise and multidisciplinary collaboration that shapes decision-making in complex family situations. Drawing on de-identified case studies, SilverBell Global will speak to behavioral health guidance across a range of circumstances – from substance use, eating disorders and other mental health concerns to relational strain, inter-generational stress, stress, or looking for proactive wellbeing support before problems escalate. 

SilverBell Global CEO Natasha Silver Bell, Clinical Advisor Dr. Cosmo Duff-Gordon, and Chief Clinical Officer/COO Dr. Taryn Jaramillo will share their perspective and experience from work with families navigating mental illness, addiction, and other complex wellbeing concerns, including how a nonjudgmental approach, grounded in compassion and discretion, helps families find safety, comfort, and a path to recovery.
