On diagnosis and treatment decisions for care-experienced young people, with Rosie McGuire

Rosie is a post-doctoral researcher at UCL specialising in the mental health of care-experienced young people. During this podcast she chats to Lou about a piece of work looking at potential biases mental health practitioners may have in the diagnosis and treatment of mental health difficulties for young people in care, as well as a connected post-doc project, which is an active implementation trial investigating the facilitators and barriers to using trauma-focused CBT with care-experienced young people.
