Lochlann Scott of Helplink Mental Health talks about their Online Service for Emigrants, the COVID impacts and his hobbies and music

Hello and welcome to the Coffee with your Therapist Podcast, the podcast where we talk with people in the therapy field about their careers, their work and the music they like, all in 20 minutes

This episode we talk to Lochlann Scott, CEO, of Helplink Mental Health who is based in Galway

Helplink is a Social Entreprise as well as a Charity and provides some very innovative services.  For example, the isolation of the Irish emigrants abroad led to the establishment of the Irish Abroad Therapy Service, an online Therapy Service for the Irish who have emigrated

We also have an interesting talk about how Covid affected the types of presentations in Counseling requirements.  For example, Lochlann talks about the effects on Young people initially and then later the effects on Couples.

Helplink are planning a Conference later in the year, their 10th anniversary, to help overcome silos in the Mental Health sector.

To finish up we learn more about Lochlann’s interesting past and about his interest in sports

And we play out with Lochlann’s favourite music – which is eclectic.
