We are always like two steps behind others and sort of, if we had that money, then we could employ new therapeutic methods, we could sort of invest in other types of innovations, different types of therapies again, because I feel that therapies are the most important to have.
Imagine a summer school setting where children not only learn but thrive mentally and emotionally. In this episode of 'Mental Insights', host Brendan Cutuli sits down with Clive Agius, a university student passionate about philosophy and psychology. Clive brings a wealth of experience from working with children facing learning and developmental challenges during the summer months. His unique perspective sheds light on how the summer environment can be a pivotal time for addressing children's mental health.
He discusses the importance of integrating fun activities into summer programs to create a more supportive and effective learning atmosphere. Clive also touches on the alarming statistic that only half of children with behavioral disorders receive the treatment they need, underscoring the urgent need for better awareness and resources. The conversation navigates through the role of education and social support in managing behavioral issues, emphasizing that the hot summer weather can significantly impact a child's mood and behavior.
With his insights, Clive makes a compelling case for innovative therapies and increased investment in mental health resources for children. Whether you're a parent, educator, or someone interested in children's mental health, this episode offers valuable knowledge and practical advice to help young minds flourish.
