Divorce is fairly common in the United States; approximately 50 percent of marriages end in a breakup. But despite how standard the process may be at this point, divorce can be incredibly stressful on children, and dealing with the emotional impact can take a lot of time, work, and patience.
On this week's How 2 Deal, therapist Micheline Maalouf [1] is joined by Outer Banks [2] star Chase Stokes, who has dealt with divorcing parents — not once, but twice. The actor is an outspoken advocate for addressing mental health issues openly and honestly through this work with the Bring Change to Mind [3] organization, which aims to end the stigma surrounding mental illness.
Tune in to hear Chase's experience, and check out Bring Change to Mind [4] if you're at all curious about keeping the conversation going.
