Highly Qualified Psychotherapist for Press Quotes and Interviews
If you are looking for radio or TV comments or researching for an article and looking for a comment or thoughts on a current news topic please get in touch with Mark Vahrmeyer mark@bh-psych.com.
Brighton and Hove Psychotherapy in the Press
Because the world of therapy is so complex and also plays a role in so much of modern life in terms of the issues we deal with we often get approached for opinions and comments. It is something we are always happy to do because we feel it is important to make sure the right information is being used in the press. Mental health is such an important issue but it is also one blighted with misinformation. This can be disastrous for people seeking help so whenever we get the chance we love to give clear and correct comments and advice to journalists.
Here are just a few topics we have commented on:
