In a conversation between DECIEM Co-Founder, Nicola Kilner and Dr Juveria Zaheer, we work to understand more about the early signs of a change in mental health and ask what steps we could have taken to approach the early subtle changes in Brandon's behaviour. We also discover new insights into how those experiencing mental illness may be feeling, and how best to support them.

Dr Juveria Zaheer is a Clinician Scientist, Researcher and Educator at CAMH, the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto, one of the world's largest and top mental health hospitals. Dr Zaheer was recognized as Physician of the Year and is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto.
