Episode 10: Student mental health

In the first episode of season two, Liz sits down with clinical psychologist Dr. Tanya Spencer, who leads counselling services at NAIT, and Marketing student Rebecca Han, president of the NAIT chapter of mental health group Jack.org. They talk about some of the reasons why mental health is such a major issue for students today and what we as a community can do to support a friend, a loved one, a classmate or a student in need of help. Thank you to this month’s guest producer, Bryan Alary for his work on the episode, and thank you to NAIT Radio and Television student Matt Matyszczuk for his work on the production.
