Psychotherapist, Malcolm Hanson, shares his knowledge and insights about our silent emergency - suicide, including what you can do to help someone who may be depressed or having suicidal thoughts...

How to reduce suicide risk training: https://www.humangivens.com/college/how-to-manage-suicide-risk-live-online-training/

Malcolm is a human givens therapist who worked for 9 years in the NHS in the West Midlands, where his cases mainly involved treating cases that were demarcated from conventional services because of their complexity or severity, such as those with complex trauma, those with a background of violence or criminality, secondary care patients, trafficked individuals and asylum seekers. At any given time, approximately half of his client list presented with suicidal ideation.

We are lucky to have Malcolm as a tutor to deliver the ‘How to reduce suicide risk’ workshop live online for Human Givens College. https://www.humangivens.com/college/how-to-manage-suicide-risk/
