Research: PTSD and young people

<p>This week’s podcast comes from NSFT research. If you’ve ever wondered what trauma is, how PTSD affects children or how many children suffer from this - then UEA professor of clinical psychology Richard Meiser-Stedman gives a brilliant explanation of these subjects. Richard goes on to explain how he is hoping to make a difference in this area through a research study called DECRYPT which helps young people from 8-17 who have PTSD which is related to more than one traumatic experience. Do have a listen to hear about this new approach to talking therapies.</p><br><p>If you are currently treating a young person who fulfils these criteria then we would really welcome you to get in touch to see if this study called DECRYPT might be suitable for them – please follow one of these links:</p><p><a href="https://sites.uea.ac.uk/decrypt" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://sites.uea.ac.uk/decrypt</a></p><p><a href="https://www.nsft.nhs.uk/research/Pages/Get-involved-in-research.aspx" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.nsft.nhs.uk/research/Pages/Get-involved-in-research.aspx</a></p><br><p>or email <a href="mailto:decrypt@uea.ac.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">decrypt@uea.ac.uk</a> and mention that you heard about the study on the NSFT podcast or <a href="mailto:researchinfo@nsft.nhs.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">researchinfo@nsft.nhs.uk</a> to take part or find out more info.</p><br><p>To get involved in other research projects with NSFT then please do visit our website <a href="https://www.nsft.nhs.uk/research/Pages/default.aspx" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Research- Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (nsft.nhs.uk)</a> and follow us on twitter @NSFTresearch</p><br><p>MUSIC</p><p><a href="http://ccmixter.org/files/Fex/61925" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Doxent Zsigmond - Forest Dreams - Stjørdal Winter Mix</a>" </p><p>by Fex</p><p>2020 - Licensed under</p><p>Creative Commons</p><p><a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/
