Show Notes
In the first of a new series, presenter Claudia Hammond reports on the latest developments in neuroscience, mental health and psychology.
Anna Freud was the daughter of Sigmund Freud who pioneered child psychotherapy. She set up the Hampstead War nurseries during the Second World War, which became the Anna Freud Centre after her death in 1982. The Centre is now celebrating its 60th anniversary and Claudia investigates how it has changed and asks what the founder would think of its many new projects, including neuroscience and teenage brains.
Claudia talks to the new Minister with responsibility for mental health, Norman Lamb.
And Rebecca Shaumberg explains why she thinks guilt is a positive characteristic in a leader.
