An Urgent Conversation: Teen Trends Parents NEED to Know | Britt Parramore

In this episode, Suzanne has an important conversation with Britt Parramore, a licensed therapist and the Clinical Director of PathLight Counseling, Behavioral Health, and Treatment Services. Together they shine a light on the current landscape of drugs, specifically marijuana, and how it's severely impacting teen mental health.

Britt explains how the THC in today's marijuana is extraordinarily potent and not the "recreational" drug our culture maintains. He outlines how THC's potency has tripled and is causing psychotic disorders and diseases like schizophrenia in teens. It's also causing higher suicide rates.

Tune in to hear Britt share his personal story and an urgent message to parents on the destructive effects of marijuana.
