Home Is Where The Start Is with Richard Hogan

Earlier this year, Ireland was left reeling after a damning report revealed the gaps and mistreatment in our child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) across the State. The report left parents and mental health professionals questioning what support is out there for children and young people who are struggling.

In this episode, Niall is joined by family psychotherapist and clinical director of the Therapy Institute, Richard Hogan. Richard has just released his new book, Home Is Where The Start Is, which offers innovative, proactive and practical strategies for dealing with a wide range of issues in the family, including excerpts of his own chaotic upbringing.

Niall and Richard discuss the failings of our mental health systems in supporting some of our most vulnerable members of society, the children, and how parents or caregivers can help them develop skills and mindsets to deal with the difficult experiences and feelings that come as part of life.
