Intermountain Health - Teen Mental Health Roundtable

“Teen Mental Health Roundtable” is a long-form branded film addressing the urgent crisis in adolescent mental health by giving teens the floor.

Intermountain Health convened a diverse group of teenagers for an unscripted conversation about anxiety, depression, social pressure, and the realities of growing up today. The discussion is candid and deeply personal, replacing statistics with lived experience.

The film introduces the idea of “circles of support,” reinforcing that mental health is not something teens navigate alone. Friends, family members, educators, and healthcare providers all play a role. Rather than positioning clinicians as authorities, the film frames Intermountain as part of that circle, a listener and advocate committed to showing up.

The documentary-style approach prioritizes authenticity and models the kind of open dialogue that reduces stigma and encourages earlier intervention. The result is more than awareness advertising. It is a community-centered piece that demonstrates meaningful care begins with connection.
