It has been estimated that approximately 20% of all people under age 20 have some emotional or behavioral disorder which is serious enough to warrant intervention. Additionally, many problems such as suicide and substance abuse increase noticeably during adolescence, yet the majority of youth in need of mental health services do not access them. Besides concerns with mental health issues, adolescents are also grappling with their upcoming independence, romantic relationships, and demands in school. An important component of the coping process is seeking help from friends, family, school counselors, or others. Volume 10(4) of The Prevention Researcher examines the help seeking process in adolescents.
