Recognising Mental Health Needs in 22q
Mental health is more than the presence or absence of a diagnosis. This webinar helps families and professionals understand how wellbeing and vulnerability interact in 22q, recognise early changes, and strengthen the foundations that protect mental health over time.
What you’ll learn
✅ How anxiety, depression, OCD, psychosis-risk, and other mental health challenges can present differently in children, teens, and adults with 22q
✅ Early warning signs that are often overlooked — including subtle behaviour changes, withdrawal, increased irritability, or sudden drops in functioning
✅ Practical steps for seeking assessment and support, communicating concerns, and navigating healthcare systems
✅ How to create emotionally safe environments, reduce stigma, and support wellbeing across the lifespan
💡 A compassionate, informative session to help you notice what others might miss — and respond early, effectively, and with confidence.
