Where is My Mind? Making Mental Health Literacy Accessible With Dr. Sharon Lambert & Naoise Ó Caoilte
Welcome to Where Is My Mind? A podcast about how we can better look after our heads and our hearts in the head-melty chaos of the modern world.
Podcasting has made mental health and wellbeing information more accessible and understandable for listeners and a new study has proved that they can in fact improve mental health literacy.
The paper, published by psychologists from University College Cork, shows that access to information through podcasts has decreased stigma and increased help-seeking amongst listeners. Niall is joined by authors Dr. Sharon Lambert and Naoise Ó Caoilte to hear why this mental health literacy is so important and how we can utilise podcasting and other mediums as excellent supports for patients and therapists.
