Connecticut Mental Health Statistics
Rates of teen depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation are at historic highs around the country, including the state of Connecticut. According to Mental Health America’s recent statistics, 16 percent of teens in Connecticut suffer from major depression, and 1 in 10 have had a severe major depressive episode in the last year.
However, less than half of teens with depression in the state aren’t getting the care they need, due in part to the lack of residential mental health treatment centers for teens in Connecticut. As a result, families searching online for “teenage counseling near me,” “teen treatment in CT,” or “teen mental health facilities in Connecticut” often find limited options and availability.
