SIXTH EPISODE of my new podcast on DisabilityPlatform.

I talk to Dr Lisa Greenspan of LAPIS (London Accessibility Psychotherapy & Inclusive Supervision) - a charity that provides specialist counselling and psychotherapy to those affected by disability and life-changing health conditions and their families and carers.

We discuss topics such as mental health support for disabled individuals including some of the most common issues they present with and how to get help. We also touched on the impact conditions can have on the families of those people and where they can access support.

A particular topic of discussion was Parent Carers, who are often some of those that often contact LAPIS for trauma informed psychological support. Dr Greenspan has been part of a working group of parent carer professionals who produced guidance on parent carers to raise awareness. The report discovered that parents may be traumatized by being signposted to services that are not trauma informed.

Link to the paper is below and we invite you to share with who may benefit from the information and resources listed. https://www.wellchild.org.uk/wp-conte ...

Please also see the parent carer mindfulness talk on YouTube that was filmed last year at the Parent Carer conference jointly carried out with affinityhub.uk
