From Heartbreak to Hope, with Austin Wyman ’23 (Ep. 36)

For Austin Wyman ’23, a current Ph.D. student in quantitative psychology at Notre Dame, the study of mental health is not just academic—it’s personal. Motivated by a family tragedy that might have been prevented with better access to mental health care, Austin has made it his life’s work to understand mental illness, advocate for early intervention, and help others get the support they need before a moment of crisis.

In this episode of For Good, Austin shares how he found solace by telling his story, why he chose to remain at Notre Dame for graduate school, and how his research is helping clinicians better diagnose and treat mental illness.

Tune in to hear why Austin finds hope in the growing conversations around mental health—and how combating stigma may be the key to preventing future tragedies.
