Ep. 78 - Self-harm and suicide | Juliana Falcão

Is self-harm a risk factor or even a suicide warning sign? Is it related to addiction? What’s the best way to help a person who self harms? These and other questions are answered in this interview by the clinical psychologist and published author Juliana Falcão, who specializes in treating self-harm, particularly teenagers.

Her insightful overview about this topic includes an evaluation of the impact of the Internet on this phenomenon, tips to parents on how to address the issue with their kids, and the different meanings that self-harm holds to those who resort to self-injurious behaviors.

For those who are interested in knowing more about self-harm, Juliana recommends these books:

A Bright Red Scream: Self-Mutilation and the Language of Pain by Marilee Strong
Secret Scars: Uncovering and Understanding the Addiction of Self-injury by V.J. Turner
Cutting it Out: A Journey through Psychotherapy and Self-Harm by Carolyn Smith and Maggie Turp
