Strengths Model Group Supervision in an Australian Community Mental Health Team
International perspectives on implementation of system change in family mental health
A focus on system change for supporting families where a parent has a mental illness appears to require the combination of many strategies and factors, with international approaches to knowledge sharing imperative to support implementing, resourcing and sustaining change
The Challenging Process of Developing an Antenatal Social Intervention for Parents From Culturally Diverse Backgrounds to Reduce Postnatal Distress
BACKGROUND: A lack of social support contributes to women from culturally diverse backgrounds experiencing higher rates of perinatal distress and lower rates of service engagement. OBJECTIVE/METHODS: This participatory action research study aimed to understand what a culturally appropriate social intervention may look like for pregnant women from culturally diverse backgrounds. Field notes and qualitative transcripts were descriptively synthesise…
A systematic review and lived experience-informed thematic synthesis of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people’s experiences in mental health and substance use services
I Just Feel Disconnected”
Research suggests shame plays a mediatory role in the relationship between trauma and psychosis, however, there is limited information on how this may occur. This qualitative study explored how experiences of shame in people living with psychosis is linked to past trauma. Fourteen adults completed semi-structured interviews. Reflexive thematic analysis was used to develop four themes: (1) shame maintains trauma; (2) trauma-related shame drives di…
Introducing Lived Experience Workers Into a Pregnancy Child Protection Intervention
Pregnancy Family Conferencing is a program to support families with identified child protection risks during the perinatal period. Parents are often cautious about engagement due to mistrust of services and fear of having their babies removed if they discuss their difficulties. Subsequently, the inclusion of lived experience parent supporter roles was piloted to support families with engagement. Little is known about lived experience workers in c…
Re-imagining the vulnerability and risk framing of parents with mental illness and their children
To elicit compassion and communicate urgency to policy makers and governments, researchers and program developers have promoted a narrative of vulnerability and risk to frame the experience of families when parents have been diagnosed with mental illness. Developed within a western medicalised socio-cultural context, this frame has provided a focus on the need for prevention and early intervention in service responses while also unintentionally ‘…
Trauma in the lives of parents experiencing severe perinatal mental illness
The findings suggest a need for more research, awareness, and consideration of the role of trauma in experiences of perinatal mental illness, with implications for developing trauma informed models for responding to parental mental illness
The Early Infancy of a Parent and Baby Mental Health Unit
The establishment of a new unit provides an opportunity to reflect on the complexity of building workforce, service and clinical capacity within the constraints of public health services. The challenges along the way have helped to build empathy for the experiences of the admitted parents who equally find that things have not gone how they have planned, while finding emerging opportunities for growth, resilience and change
Considering the moral implications of psychiatric diagnosis for children
Increasing numbers of children are meeting criteria for psychiatric disorders. While diagnoses may be of situational and individual benefit, they also have sustained and significant impacts on children's lives, including what they believe to be true, and how they understand themselves. Psychiatric diagnosis, therefore, has moral implications for children. This paper considers these moral implications, including uncertainty about the accuracy, tre…
Supporting High-Risk Families Through a Pregnancy Family Conferencing Model
Effective child protection responses in the perinatal period can reduce the need for long-term service intervention. A Pregnancy Family Conferencing (PFC) initiative was established in one Local Health District in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, by child protection and health services to facilitate strengths-focused planning with families identified as high risk. This qualitative study explores the experiences of professionals engaged with PF…
Raising the Bar
Internationally, lead agencies and consumer movements emphasise the need for high-level research participation in mental health. However, evidence suggests that people with lived experience tend to be recruited as subjects rather than as active agents in research, or are consulted in tokenistic ways. Although participatory research has the potential to rectify epistemic disparities, few studies have grappled with how to move from exclusion and to…
Trauma‐informed qualitative research
Mental health nurses who engage in research are likely to undertake research on sensitive topics, related to experiences of illness, care delivery and treatment. With recognition of the high prevalence of trauma in the lives of people who interact with mental health services, it is likely that many research participants will have experienced trauma in their lives and that while this may not be the focus of the research, sensitivity and awareness …
Intergenerational Trauma and Its Relationship to Mental Health Care
Psychological Trauma in the Context of Familial Relationships
Many forms of psychological trauma are known to develop interpersonally within important relationships, particularly familial. Within the varying theoretical constructs of psychological traumas, and distinct from the processes of diagnosis, there is a need to refine the scope and definitions of psychological traumas that occur within important familial relationships to ensure a cohesive evidence base and fidelity of the concept in application to …
A Narrative Inquiry Into Global Systems Change to Support Families When a Parent Has a Mental Illness
The issues that confront families when a parent experiences mental illness are complex. This often means that multiple service systems must be engaged to meet families' needs, including those related to intergenerational experiences of mental health and illness. A multisystem approach to public mental health care is widely recommended as a form of preventative intervention to address the effects of mental illness and its social, psychological, an…
