Episode 131: RMPA Retrospectives 1: Exploring Student Mental Health

Psychosocial Distancing

A bonus series of our book read/podcast covering major topics in various fields of psychology has us LIVE! At the Rocky Mountain Psychological Association. We had the pleasure of running a mini-series of live interviews with some of the students and advising professionals in psychology from across the Rocky Mountain region!

In this episode Daniel and Thomas get retrospective on student mental health and the modern university. We rant a bit (more than a bit) about the issues facing the modern university that create a façade of help for students and may not help as much as they seem. It all looks good on paper until people need those services.
