Stigma and Mental Health Treatment for Kids

By Beth Sapiro

As a therapist working in schools, clinics and after-school programs, I frequently run up against the barrier of stigma. All too often, a child or adolescent is struggling with emotional and behavioral problems that could be addressed through counseling. However, when the possibility of therapy is broached, the responses come fast and furious:

-Therapy is only for people with serious mental problems.
-Therapy means you’re “psycho.”
-Therapy means you’ll be labeled and discriminated against for the rest of your life.
-Being in therapy means you’ll have to take medication forever and be a zombie.
-You don’t need therapy; you need to stop being lazy/pay attention/get a job/grow up.

I don’t want to lie.  It’s hard to feel inspired working in outpatient mental health right now.  As social workers, it often feels like the system is working against us, making it impossible to get things done.  Insurance reimbursements get cut.  Systems are broken and people fall through the cracks.  However, I recently had a session with a client that challenged my own feelings of hopelessness.

We hear in the news all the time about celebrities who obtain DWI charges, reckless driving charges, domestic issues, and untimely death (in the recent case of Whitney Houston) and the cause is often the same – alcohol use, pill use, Cocaine use and much more. At Project Contact, our clients typically cannot relate to the celeb news, at least at first. Then, after discussion, the clients find that they are not so different from them – it’s all about the substance use.

As we head into the holiday season at Project Contact, we continue to recognize the struggles of our addiction recovery clients during this time every year. Last month, I blogged about ways to get through Thanksgiving while in recovery, and I wanted to follow up with some advice about the upcoming December holidays. Addressing this issue early definitely reduces the rate of use and allows our clients to process and plan for celebrating the holidays without alcohol or drug consumption.

At least once a day, a client walks into my office late, flustered and in a panic about their commute on the NYC subway system. Riding the subway can be a frustrating experience for all of us. But for those who struggle with anxiety, the subway can be a nightmarish experience. Being stuck in a small, crowded space with no clear way out can be a formula for a panic attack. So, whether you’re feeling panicked or just impatient, I’ve put together a few tips & tricks for managing your morning commute.

Oftentimes, we see our clients at Project Contact struggle during the holidays.  As if life wasn’t enough of a trigger, recovering addicts have to deal with the temptations of “holiday rituals” that involve lifelong alcohol and drug use. As a result, clients often relapse during holiday time with the pressures of family gatherings. But how can we prevent this temptation and help clients cope during the holidays?

This fall, change is in the air at the Educational Alliance.  In preparation for the renovation of the new Educational Alliance building at 197 East Broadway, programs are moving into temporary locations. Each division at the Educational Alliance is affected by the move in different ways. Many employees are trading private offices for cubicles or mobile desktops. Some programs have had delayed starts as their move-in dates were pushed back for various reasons. In Counseling Services, we have moved from our former offices on the U-floor up to temporary offices on the 6th floor.
