Supporting someone who self harms
Self-harm can be frightening and overwhelming — not only for the person struggling, but also for the loved ones who want to help. This free, 90-minute webinar is designed for parents, carers, friends, and partners who want to better understand self-harm and learn how to offer effective, compassionate support.
Led by experienced mental health educators, the session will cover:
-
Why people self-harm and what it may signify
-
Common myths and misconceptions
-
How to talk about self-harm without judgment or panic
-
Practical strategies for supporting someone during and after a crisis
-
Looking after your own wellbeing as a supporter
This session will also introduce evidence-based tools from therapies such as Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), with real-world examples and tips you can start using straight away.
There will be time for anonymous questions and signposting to further support.
Who is it for?
Parents, carers, siblings, partners, and anyone supporting someone who self-harms — whether the person is a teen, young adult, or older.
