APS webinar: The way we work - How local engagement and healthy workplaces matter to psychologists and their clients



This is the final webinar in the APS Institute's four-part series of webinars on applying a Social Determinants of Health approach in psychological practice and will take place on Tuesday 4th July from 7-8.30pm AEST.

Dr Jo Mitchell (Clinical Psychologist and Co-Founder of the Mind Room) and Belinda Barnett (University of Queensland and voluntary maternity consumer advocate for Maternity Choices Australia (MCA)) will discuss the importance of psychologically healthy workplaces, identify how workplace and care policies impact on health and wellbeing and discuss implications for practice.

An overview of a practice model that works collaboratively with organisations, groups and individuals to enhance outcomes for clients and communities will be presented and  there will also be an opportunity to learn, via a case study, about research into women's experiences of decision making, wellbeing and empowerment during the perinatal period.
