Free Mental Health Awareness Night at Intermountain Health Park City Hospital to Build Better Understanding of Common Behavioral Health Conditions

Round Valley Clinic Bldg 0419-8939

As part of Mental Health Awareness Month in May, Intermountain Health Park City Hospital is hosting a free mental health awareness event on Tuesday, May 20 from 6-7 pm in the Blair Education Center at the hospital.

The focus for the event is Neurodivergence: Challenging Perceptions, Shaping Understanding.

Two local clinics – Intermountain Health’s Psychiatry and Counseling Clinic in Park City and Solstice Counseling and Wellness in Heber City – are coming together to build better understanding and reduce the stigma of seeking behavioral health care in the community.

Topics will include autism spectrum disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and how these common conditions can interact in people, what treatment options are available, and some strategies for interacting with people who have these disorders or conditions.

Participants will include psychologist Shawn Miller, PhD, owner of Solstice Counseling and Wellness, Colton Miller, PhD, a psychologist with Intermountain Health’s Psychiatry and Counseling Clinic, and three PhD candidates who are interns in psychology: Lanie Belland and Kyndal Edwards from Intermountain Health and Ryan O’Keefe from Solstice.

After the three short presentations on those topics there will be a question and answer opportunity with the providers.
