“There's this unanimous sense that how could something like this not exist? It seems so logical and beneficial.”
This episode of Quick Takes kicks off a new series on mental health care innovations. These are short and focused episodes we hope you will enjoy.
In this episode Dr. Gratzer speaks with Dr. Ainslie Heasman, about her about her program aimed at preventing sexual abuse, Talking for Change.
In this discussion we learn:
• How important this program is to intervene with the individuals who may engage in abuse, as opposed to offering services to children to prevent their own abuse.
• The difficulty in measuring the impact of both anonymous and non- anonymous interventions.
• How well-suited this program is to the world of digital mental health care.
