E50 - Laura Griffin -What is making male suicide the only option for some

This week’s guest currently works as a counsellor and a yoga teacher, with a particular interest in addiction.

She spent many years working in drug and alcohol rehabilitation settings, where she learnt from her clients (rather than from formal education) the true origin of addiction, which is trauma and emotional pain management.

Recently completed an Honours in Psychology at Victoria University where her thesis subject was on masculinity and its relationship to suicidal ideation, satisfying a longstanding curiosity about men’s mental health.

She is soon to become a first-time mum and have discovered the fascinating world of natural birth practices.
