Adolescence is a life phase in which future patterns of adult health are established [1]. The period of adolescence (i.e., 10-19 years) is associated with significant vulnerability for mental health problems [1]. Approximately 75% of individuals who experience poor mental health in adulthood first experience difficulties before age 182. The consequences of not addressing mental health problems in this developmental period can result in poorer educational and occupational outcomes, relationship difficulties, and recurring depression [2–4].
