Roselinde Kaiser asks: what is it about the teen years that puts us at risk for depression – but also helps us to build resilience? Drawing upon neurodevelopmental and clinical science, Dr. Kaiser shows why adolescence is a developmental window of both risk and enrichment, and outlines strategies for teens (and the rest of us) to thrive. Dr. Rosi Kaiser is a clinical psychologist and neuroscientist who uses integrated behavioral, developmental, and neuroscientific methods to understand Major Depression and related affective disorders. Dr. Kaiser explores these topics from a developmental perspective, with special interest in using neurocognitive risk markers to predict the onset and course of mood disorders in teens or young adults. Clinically, Dr. Kaiser is testing how neurocognitive functioning may be enhanced to foster affective health, with the goal of translating basic science into improved treatment and emotional wellness.

Dr. Kaiser received a dual-Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and Neuroscience in 2013 from the University of Colorado Boulder, completing her predoctoral Clinical Internship at Yale University School of Medicine. After receiving her doctoral degree, Dr. Kaiser trained as a postdoctoral Fellow in affective and translational neuroscience at Harvard Medical School/McLean Hospital. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    I’m 22 but I’ve realized that adults even my age forgot how they felt when they were young. The true feelings. Yeah feelings when you are young are strong. But they are REAL feelings.

    Thank you. I'm raising my 13-year-old Grand Daughter and needed to hear this.

    Sometimes I wonder why some of these speakers decided to do a TED talk because they're obviously not comfortable with it but she is so good. She's so comfortable and easy to understand. She clearly put a lot of effort into this and she's so good at it, especially for a topic like this that's really important.

    Teen brains are not broken. It's the world that's broken and they are expected to act as adults when they are not adults and they don't know how to handle it anymore

    The most regrettable thing is that many people work hard on depression without realizing it. It all seems normal that the roller coaster of life is turning harder and faster to do everything as fast, much, automatically and cheaply and as big as possible. Not because it is necessary, but because our commanders and shareholders will never be satisfied with their sick ego and their greed.

    through all my depression i learn about human psychology, I study myself and make me even more hungry for success. Being an introvert was the best day of my life. I learn everything by reading books. I love books

    Parents: man up, don't be so dramatic, stop lying about having suicidal thoughts, stop being so childish ect Also parents: why aren't you trusting us? You can tell us everything! We love you! Why are you so distant?
