- The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) and Trauma (watch video). Dr. Jamie Rickcord explains the endocannabinoid system (ECS) and how it interacts with the stress response system and trauma. He suggests a shift towards more holistic care, in order to consider this oft-neglected aspect of biology.

- Q&A: Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Coercive Control (watch video). Dr. Michael Acton explains the history of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), its prognosis and how it intersects with coercive control in relationships. Extracted from the MHA course, Coercive Control: Recognise, Manage, Change.
- Fostering Healthy Masculinity (watch video). Rachel Tomlinson steps through her process for helping male clients to identify and re-process the many socialisation messages directed at men which can engender problematic, destructive behaviours. Emphasis is placed on the therapeutic alliance and a client-led approach in tackling this difficult and divisive issue. Extracted from the MHA course, Working with Toxic Masculinity in Male Clients.
