Episode 3 – Tele-Mental Health
Children and families who have experienced the effects of abuse need immediate, high quality, specialized care. However, a number of factors can stand in the way – provider availability, patient schedules, travel requirements, and more. Jennifer Rolls Reutz, MPH joins us on this episode to discuss how Tele-Mental Health can help break down barriers between this crucial mental health care and those who need it.
