It covers some of the common mental health issues affecting young people, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders and psychosis. You will be equipped with skills to work more effectively with young people living with mental health issues, as well as learn ways to support young people with a mental health issue and relate to their experiences. Learning takes place through a mix of presentations, group discussions and workshop activities.
