Mood & Mental Health with PKU
An "Ask the Experts" panel featuring lived experiences from adults living with phenylketonuria (PKU).
About the Webinar
Living with PKU involves more than managing phenylalanine levels and following a specialized diet. Emotional well-being, mood and mental health are also important parts of the lived experience.
The Alliance of PKU Families is hosting a free, live "Ask the Experts" panel that brings together adults living with PKU to share their experiences and perspectives.
The conversation will be unscripted and moderated, with practical insights, tips and resources shared during the session.
Meet the Moderator and Panelists
Kendra J. Bjoraker, PhD, LP
Pediatric Neuropsychologist and Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Bjoraker will moderate the conversation with four adult panelists living with PKU.
Who Should Attend?
This educational opportunity may be of interest to individuals living with PKU, family members, caregivers, metabolic healthcare professionals, counsellors and others interested in mental health and rare diseases. We believe this has application across all our rares, and suggest attendance by HCU, MSUD and UCD as well.
