TMB Episode 53: Self-Harming Behaviors
Though they have been around for decades, self-harming behaviors continue to increase in prevalence. Social media and other pop culture references have made this maladaptive coping mechanism mainstream.
In this podcast, Dr. Berney and Dr. Richard discuss the reasons why teens and young adults self-harm. They also review the theoretical underpinnings for its use as well as offer details as to what parents should do if they discover their teen is engaging in cutting or other self-injurious behavior.
