Adoption is a brilliant topic that I've always wanted to cover on The Psychology World Podcast. It can be seen as an opportunity to give a child a new life, a new home and a great childhood that they might not have had otherwise. Yet similar to deciding whether or not to have a biological child, there are a lot of questions to think about. Ultimately, you need to decide is adopting right for you. Also, aspiring and qualified psychologists and other mental health professionals need to be aware of adoption because adoption concerns, fear or possibilities might be a maintaining factor for our clients regardless of their mental health conditions. I'll discuss this more in today's podcast episode. Lastly, as a gay person, adoption is the most likely choice for me to have a child. I would love to have a kid because I would care for them, give them the best life possible and I would love them like my own. Yet I am also aware that adoption isn't right for everyone. Therefore, in this social psychology podcast episode, you'll learn why is adoption important for psychologists to be aware of, what are the questions people should answer before they adopt and much more.

We know from social and cultural psychology that our attitudes and opinions towards different topics are largely informed by the world we live in. Everything from our culture of origin, our family, our friends and more can influence our attitudes. This extends into our beliefs and attitudes surrounding mental health conditions and the lived experience of others. For example, hearing voices is heavily stigmatised in the West but in certain cultures, hearing voices is often celebrated and seen as a sign of the gods.

Whether you’re an aspiring psychologist, psychology student or loved one of a teenager, this podcast episode will be immensely useful to you. Since my audience is mainly psychology students and aspiring and qualified psychologists, I want to mention that depending on the mental health service you work in, there is a chance you’ll encounter a survivor of sexual violence. As well as I’ve already mentioned on the podcast before unfortunately how common sexual assault is for men and women. Yet unfortunately teenagers can be subjected to sexual assault too, and this presents us with an issue becausesome of the advice about how to help adult survivors doesn’t work for teenagers. As well as because teenagers are still children and as parents or friends or loved ones, we want to protect them at all costs, we aren’t always sure how to help them. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn a range of tips on how to help a teenage sexual assault survivor. If you enjoy learning about mental health, victim support and the healing after sexual assault then this will be a useful, insightful and great episode for you.
