The Mental Health Crisis: Promoting Wellbeing for Our Patients and Ourselves

Almost half of all Australian adults will face mental health challenges during their lives, and 1 in 5 will experience one this year. How can we as practitioners support our patients, our communities, and even ourselves? Introducing the all-new hosts of FX Medicine - Dr Adrian Lopresti, Dr Damian Kristof, Emma Sutherland and Dr Michelle Woolhouse – who come together for the first time in an episode moderated by Dr Leslie Braun, to discuss the growing mental health crisis. In our inaugural episode, the hosts discuss the shifts they have seen in their various practices around the growing mental health challenges, and how natural medicine and natural health practitioners can support their clients’ wellbeing. They also discuss what this crisis is teaching us about mental health, how some of the long-term effects of this might manifest in the coming years, and some of the strategies each host employs to keep themselves and their patients in a better mental health space.
