📣 Join Shubhangi Kaushik (Registered Psychologist) and Mark Hopfenbeck (Open Dialogue Researcher and Trainer) for the launch of a new, ongoing meeting space designed for families, carers, and professionals. This 90-minute gathering is a purposeful space to explore Open Dialogue and dialogical ways of being. Together, the group will discuss what it actually takes to humanise mental health care and experience a new way of connecting with one another. Whether you are a family looking for a different path, or a professional curious about a more relational approach, you are welcome to join this community conversation to explore how we can do things differently. 🔗 Click the link in our bio to learn more!

Mental Health Carers NSW (MHCN) is collaborating with Transcultural Mental Health Centre (TMHC) and @unsw to conduct a study on mental health services and family-focused practice with young people (aged 18 - 25) from Arabic, Mandarin and Vietnamese speaking communities and their families/carers. We are assisting UNSW to recruit participants for focus group discussions with:
- Young people (18–25) from Arabic, Mandarin or Vietnamese speaking communities who have experience with mental health services
- Family members and carers (18+) from Arabic, Mandarin and Vietnamese speaking communities that care for a young person aged 18 – 25 experiencing mental health challenges. Participation involves attending one or two 1.5-hour focus groups and completing a short questionnaire beforehand. Participants will be reimbursed for their time. Interpreters and bilingual health professionals will be available. The study will inform a report and practical resources to support clinicians to deliver culturally sensitive, family-focused care. If you know a person who may be interested in being a participant and would like support with attaining information included in the flyer in their preferred language, an interpreter can be arranged for this. 🔗 Click the link in our bio to learn more!
