Self-Harm And Recovery

Bruce Wallace was born in 1951 and became involved in the area of mental health firstly through qualifying as a mental health nurse (in the late 1960's) and later teaching both students preparing for work in mental health and those already qualified but developing their knowledge and skills further.

He has a specific interest in the area of self-harm/injury through both the fact that he facilitates a specific unit dedicated to the subjects of self-harm and suicide and has known and worked with individuals who have self-harmed/injured.

He has attempted to balance the views of the 'profession' with those who have come into contact with that profession to enable a greater understanding to emerge and hopefully a better experience for those individuals looking for support and help. He has previously published a book exploring issues related to self-harm/injury.
