Holistic Mental Health Support is for trainees intending to work in self-directed, recovery-oriented support for people affected by mental illness and psychiatric disability. Real-world case studies help you understand how the chapter concepts might be applied in practice; insights from actual practitioners provide a deeper understanding of people and situations; figures and tables illustrate concepts to support your learning; and icons help you recognise various aspects of mental health care whenever they are mentioned in the text.
