We are a new podcast hosted by two therapists/counsellors. One is qualified while the other is in training. We are interested in discussing topics that matter – both inside the counselling room – issues which are commonly brought into therapy such as grief, anxiety, depression. Yet, we’re also a podcast that has a dual focus, also looking outside of the therapy room at social and political issues which effect the world around us on a daily basis such as mental health awareness and wellbeing. Published on a bi-monthly on 4th & 18th! Want to contact us? Email thetherapyfilespodcast@gmail.com

episode 6: 25. "Men, is it time to talk?" Support for Men's Mental Health with Cathal Reid
Join Callum & Craig as they sit down again with Cathal Reid - a schoolteacher and men's mental health activist from Ireland. This week, they examine Men's mental health support and Cathal & Craig share the story of how they discovered Mentell a national men's mental health charity based in Stockport, England, UK that promotes the notion that talking with other men can help. As in the past, sitting in circle around a fire and offloading their troubles can help men better understand themselves. and others in a profound and remarkable way. So, pull up a seat and join us as we continue this double-bill on masculinity and men's mental health
