Ep 308: From screen to couch - supporting men's mental health with Rob Wotton

Nov 13, 2023, 06:00 AM

Mick is joined by Rob Wotton on this week's podcast.

You might recognise Rob from presenting on Sky Sports News - but when he's not on our screens, he's working as a trained BACP counsellor helping people deal with their mental health issues.

Mick and Rob discuss how Rob uses his experience as a sports journalist to create appropriate analogies with his clients, and how men can educate themselves about the signs and symptoms of what life with depression is like.

Rob is backing BACP's new #RAISE campaign, also discussed in episode 307, which is designed to give men, and their loved ones, the clues they need to spot issues before they get out of control.

Host Mick Coyle is on X and Instagram, and you can find him on Linkedin.
