Out of the 'Too Hard Basket' AASW – Social Work People Podcast
-
- Cultura y sociedad
When young people walk through Alex Wilson’s door, they are already carrying the stigma from their long involvement in our mental health system. They know they have been called ‘Frequent Flyers’ or ‘treatment resistant’. Alex’s aim for her work with these young people is that they will feel appreciated, validated and empowered. Alex knows that this work involves risks. But Alex is not cavalier about these risks. Her rigorous approach to risk is where the conversation starts.
