A Co-designed GP Guide for Self-Harm with Maria

Hello and welcome to the research zone podcast - the podcast where we aim to make sense of youth mental health research. 
Our first interviewee is Maria Michail who talks to us about a new guide she co-designed with young people about going to see your GP with self-harm or suicidal thoughts. In the interview we cover:

A 2 minute elevator pitch of the research Why we chose to create a GP guide Barriers preventing young people from seeking help from a GP The process of creating the guide with young people What the guide contains How we hope the guide might help people
