🎙️ #DissociativeIdentityDisorder is a highly stigmatised mental health condition.
We spoke with Stephanie Robertson, an OT who lives as a plural system.
She describes DID as the brain finding a way to cope with overwhelm.

🧠 You can’t separate communication from mental health.
SLPs work with more than words—we support identity, connection & wellbeing.
That’s what Kizzy Searle & I explore in the Mindful Speechies podcast.

Last night, I had the privilege of seeing one of my heroes, Gabor Maté, speak in Sydney. His insights on trauma, growth, and authenticity were powerful and thought provoking. Grateful for the opportunity to hear him in person. #GaborMate

I'm excited to share the evolution of my practice to include psychotherapy. I've always felt that mental health underpins so much of the work I do as a speechie. I'm looking forward to the new direction & hope to provide a more well rounded service to my clients & their families

This article is deeply troubling. It's disheartening to see Australian orgs endorsing forceful therapy programs like this kind of ABA, despite substantial evidence highlighting its harmful effects. Families seeking the best for their kids remain unaware abc.net.au/news/2023-09-25/a…

I'm still recruiting for teenagers with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) in Australia to participate in this study. Please share with your networks or consider forwarding to clinicians/families you know. Thank you! #DevLangDis #DLDEdResearch

Griffith University is conducting research into the educational needs of students with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). We’re looking for Australian teens to participate in an online interview to tell us about their experiences at school.

Just watched 'The Work' documentary (2017). A powerful exploration of masculinity, vulnerability, trauma, and healing. It showcases group therapy sessions with convicted felons and outsiders inside prison. Raw and refreshing to see men open up and bare all. Highly recommended!
