How to Resolve Conflicts Involving Mental Health

One in five adults each year are coping with a diagnosable mental health problem.  Even if our problems don't escalate to diagnoses, we all know what it's like to have a bad day.  How do we have effective communication when we're impacted by mental health issues, or just trying to talk about them? Dan Berstein, a mediator with bipolar disorder and an expert in mental health communication, will share insights to help you have empowering mental health conversations.
