If your client came to you and said, “I've been asked to tell my story to a journalist,” would you encourage them to do it?
Join psychologist, Dr Cait McMahon, and journalist, Ashlynne McGhee, as they discuss the intersection of journalism and mental health. Bringing their own professional perspectives, they share what it’s like to work as a practitioner supporting journalists seeking mental health support, as well as the experience of being a journalist reporting on traumatic events.
Together they explore the unique challenges journalists face working in the field, their responsibilities when interviewing people in duress and the benefits of collaboration between journalists and mental health professionals.
