Emma Collicott is the founder of ECBC, a Manchester-based organisation working hard to decrease the stigma around mental health and reduce the loneliness and isolation these issues can bring.

In this episode of 'Ask the Therapist', we talk to Emma about her journey through depression all the way to starting ECBC. Emma shares her honest insights and practical advice into living with depression and shame and what steps you can take to overcome negative feelings towards yourself. Keep listening to the very end where you will also find out how you can get involved with ECBC and share your own story to help others.
