Boys Mental Health
Our boys face an uphill battle - caught between their desire to explore the world’s curiosities and the pressure to suppress their natural talents.
Boys are especially vulnerable to mental health challenges. The intricate and often misunderstood inner experiences of our future men are frequently overlooked or dismissed, resulting in their struggles going unrecognized and unaddressed. As a result, problematic behaviors are too often written off as merely “boys being boys.” This mindset hinders early intervention and support, which are crucial for healthy emotional development.
Dr. Santillan holds a special appreciation for supporting our young males. He holds extensive training that prepares him for addressing the various mood or behavioral challenges our young boys face. He emphasizes that recognizing the mental health needs of these young individuals is a crucial step in building their resilience, emotional intelligence, and overall well-being. This foundation is essential for enabling them to thrive both personally and socially, ultimately contributing to the development of well-rounded, capable men.
