Notas del episodio

In this weeks episode, Han is joined by Dr Lorna Collins.

Lorna has a truly inspiring story. Aged 18, Lorna experienced a tramatic brain injury which resulted in total amnesia and the development of many psychiatric illnesses causing her to be an inpatient on a psychiatric ward for almost 2 years.

Art became Lorna's medicine, and she developed the ability to express herself through art which has become the centre of her recovery. Lorna has previously worked as a Peer Support Worker with Oxford NHS ED service and a patient representative at the Royal College of Psychiatry, and now she is actively researching why art helps us to make sense of ourself.

To find out more from Lorna, you can find her on social media @sensinglorna or you can visit her website - www.lornacollins.com.

Please note, this episode discusses self harm, eating disorders and psychiatric illness.
