Join Victorian Transcultural Mental Health (VTMH) and four expert lived-experience panellists in sharing how their connection to their spirituality has supported and enhanced their mental health, wellbeing, and recovery.
They will outline their vision for compassionate person-centred mental health care that considers the spiritual domain of human expression and brings us another step closer to realising the biopsychosocial-spiritual model of holistic care.
