About this audiobook
Supporting a young person who is self-harming feels like a minefield. Why are they doing it? And Why can’t they just stop? Self-harm goes against every innate instinct of self-protection and survival, and remains a distressing and difficult issue for parents and carers.
Uncovering the wide and varied reasons and ways young people self-harm, this book offers fresh insights into how to prevent, understand and respond to self-harm. With 20 years experience in the latest research, Michelle Mitchell combines interviews, expert advice and personal stories in one unique resource to provide parents and carers with the practical help and comfort they need.
