  • Summary

  • Well, hello, one and all. We wish you a happy Sunday, an extremely belated Merry Christmas, and a belated happy new year. Here at the Therapy Files, we’re starting the year off on a bit of a back foot – 2022 ended too quickly – in other words, in between managing our jobs and daily life, amongst a winter cold or two, we found ourselves somewhat surprised to be thrust unceremoniously into a new year!

    We might be starting 2023 slower than we would have liked, but better late than never, right? We bring you our December 2022 episode on Stalking. A hard-hitting yet critically and often undiscussed area of criminological research – if you hadn’t yet guessed – this is one of Callum’s subjects!

    In this episode, we cover:

    · What stalking is

    · Statistics

    · Legislation (see links below for updated information)

    · And as ever, Televisual and filmic representations of stalking.
