Researchers, clinicians and people with lived experience have put together a video for mental health practitioners about Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). This condition affects many children and adults, and does put individuals at greater risk of poor mental health. Not only this, but DLD impacts on how well people can access their psychological therapies.

In this video we cover:

- What is DLD?
- How does DLD impact mental health (drawing on the words of a young woman with DLD and her mother)
- What are the signs of DLD in a mental health setting?
- What adaptations would help a child or adult get more out of their mental health interventions?
