What a lovely end to three days of intensive learning!
Our #ptsleaders have enjoyed a Global Thought Leaders Lunch in the Barossa, experiencing an excellent taste of what SA has to offer while they share their highlights from #GACoPTS19.
@seppeltsfield
A great few days at the #GACoPTS2019 and a privilege to listen to all the great #ptsleaders
I was grateful to be part of the active panel, and hope to be up on the stage in a few years with my own research/ideas. The #future of #PTSgrowth is strong and moving forward!
We were honoured to have three of our #ptsleaders share their extensive knowledge at our annual Remembrance Day Breakfast this morning.
Pictured (L-R) Dr Jon Lane, Melissa S. Walker and David Wiseman.
As Day 2 of #GACoPTS19 draws to a close, we are reflecting on the inspiring and informative discussions our #ptsleaders have held today. Today’s topics included first responders, families research, sport therapy and much more.
We’ll see you bright and early tomorrow for Day 3!
We have also heard about models of care for PTS, peer-based support programs, and programs and support to aid post-traumatic growth by #ptsleaders from Australia, Canada, the USA and the UK.
Thank you Katia Ferrar for presenting the @UniversitySA#Invictus Pathways Program to @TheRoadHome_AU Global Alliance Conference on Post-Traumatic Stress and explaining how this program integrates with the #community#ptsleaders#gacopts2019
Thank you @wiseshow for an inspirational story and your views on supporting #recovery to inspire and achieve growth at @TheRoadHome_AU Global Alliance Conference on Post-Traumatic Stress @WeAreInvictus#ptsleaders#gacopts2019
“There’s no medication like hope.”
Dr Stephen Boucher from OSI Clinic, Canada, talks about models of care for PTS noting that we’re all in this together!

Great to hear Josh Goldberg speak from @BCRforHeroes about Posttraumatic Growth Programs for Post-Traumatic Growth at the The Road Home Global Alliance Conference on Post-Traumatic Stress. #Adelaide#southaustralia#ptsleaders#gacopts2019#pathways
Day 2 of #GACoPTS19 is underway!
This morning we are focusing on first responders and families.
We have heard from Canadian and Australian #ptsleaders and participated in an engaging panel on first responders, research, programs and lived experience.
Insightful panel discussion on peer support on day 2 of the @TheRoadHome_AU Global Alliance Conference on Post Traumatic Stress. #ptsleaders#GACoPTS2019 There is a need to think of transition as a continuous process rather than unconnected discrete events.
@rncarleton presents on @CIPSRT_ICRTSP and the progress made with and for our public safety community — hard to believe how much has been accomplished since we were together last in Adelaide in 2016! #ptsleaders#GACoPTS2019
Stacey Ferland, Psychological Services Division, Calgary Police Service, shares a very impressive program that is working to destigmatize mental health issues at an organizational culture level--and extending to families #ptsleaders#GACoPTS2019@CIPSRT_ICRTSP@CalgaryPolice
Great to hear Stacey Ferland speak from Calgary Police Service on Police Psychological Support Model at the @TheRoadHome_AU Global Alliance Conference on Post-Traumatic Stress. Proving that Canada is way ahead in support for our front line police #ptsleaders#gacopts2019
