Understanding and managing troubling mental images

Troubling mental images, such as bad memories, fearful ‘flashforwards’ and negative images of the self can impact our mental health and sense of self. In this talk from the Department of Experimental Psychology, Hannah Murray explores how negative mental images can affect us, how psychological therapy can help, and how, in our day-to-day lives, we can transform our own troubling mental images. A Q&A follows, chaired by Cathy Creswell.
