\n \nMa rcus Evans\, psychoanalyst will be in conversation with mental health nurse\, Jo Osimuwa.
\n \nEveryone working in mental health knows how emo tionally taxing that work can be. There’s somethin g fundamentally different to working in physical m edicine. We’re not dealing with patients who “have ” an illness\, but with people whose difficulties are central to their personality\, their emotional experience and their ways of relating. In working with them\, we get deeply affected and we might g et embroiled in ways that make things worse. Relat ionships are central to the work. If we understand what happens between our patients and us\, in our selves\, and between staff\, we can be of much mor e help to them. Psycho-analysis offers such ways o f understanding\, and this is what this course aim s to do.
