Sounds really interesting. Healthcare change is a very big mountain to climb to more of us pushing for it the better. I’m hugely passionate about this because of my personal experiences.

Current healthcare practice exacerbates mental health risk factors. There are many challenges with living with a LTC but so much more we could be doing to support wellbeing.

Yes! Psychologically informed care is vital to promote established protective factors and mitigate risk factors to prevent the development of medical trauma & difficulties. This is the whole premise of this book ❤️
