Help for pupils with psychological stress
IN VIA employees working as mental health coaches
Learning stress, exam nerves, arguments with friends or within the family - children and young people have to deal with all kinds of problems. The consequences of the coronavirus pandemic, climate change and wars are also a major source of stress. Mental health coaches - a project run by the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs - have recently started offering help. They look after the mental health of young people at schools. One of them is Lisa Aschenbrenner from IN VIA Bayern, the Catholic association for girls' and women's social work. Together with project manager Yeliz Soytemel, she presents the work of the mental health coaches in this episode and gives tips on how to strengthen mental health.
