25.01.2022 This is an excellent article as is much of the Harvard Business Review material. In particular the article uses Winnacotts notion of holding to apply to a broader systemic level. Its normally a concept used in a psychological space but his stuff is certainly applicable at a broader level. Im a huge Wnnacott fan - he was a paediatrician and pysychotherapist from last century

25.01.2022 Memory consolidation takes place during sleep by strengthening of the neural connections that form our memories - Improve your memory with a good nights sleep.... #SAW2019 #SleepAwarenessWeek #Sleeponit #Memory #ProblemSolving See more

24.01.2022 This doesnt just apply to social workers. Ive always had a thing about leaving well whether a social worker or any job for that matter. Leave on your own terms as best you can; if its a bad ending get whatever closure you can, close off ends as best you can and hold your head high. Try not to carry bad blood into your next job or chapter. Keep your professional boundaries in tact, manage the transition, get some air and go for the next chapter feeling crisp

24.01.2022 This may be helpful for those of us (like me) that have speaking gigs

24.01.2022 Worth looking at him if you havent. My view is to come at the mental illness phenomenon from different ways and consider various paradigms. I think theres a bit in this one and I reckon hes got it spot on. Its important to keep an open mind too. Grist for the mill ... as they say

23.01.2022 Important in the dynamic around domestic and gender abuse

22.01.2022 Nicely put! Especially for those of us looking for the meaningful pathway!

22.01.2022 Some useful tips for self-care

22.01.2022 Common sense info but good to be reminded of

21.01.2022 An important early step in the trauma recovery process. Its essential the person is ready and prepared for this in a trusting environment with good boundaries and where they feel held. Informed consent with the therapist is important too ie the client knows what expect along the way

19.01.2022 A comprehensive look at self care

19.01.2022 Needing to be more aware of the importance of maintaining balance in our lives to ensure the wellbeing of others and ourselves

18.01.2022 For interested and suitably qualified social workers

18.01.2022 Whilst this is a social work article I think it can translate to other professions and lived experiences

16.01.2022 A good read - burnout (dont like the term) is generally more contextual or systemic rather than due to individual vulnerabilities

16.01.2022 Labels - sometimes helpful, sometimes not. Its important that we exercise careful clinical judgement about how we accept them and how we use them on a case by case basis; context is a critical factor in this process

15.01.2022 CPD for Tas Social Workers

15.01.2022 Have a look at the video on this site. I very much relate to this and you might too. Weve all had a bit more isolation of late but somehow the vibe of this clip massages my soul https://www.mindful.org/how-loneliness-helps-us-heal/

14.01.2022 At Rostrum you can develop your speaking and meeting skills and practice will help you to refine your ideas and presentations....

14.01.2022 A classic book and a seminal text from my social work student days. Good old fashioned radical material. I still have my copy

14.01.2022 Also for clients we might work with

14.01.2022 I like the idea of preferment. Never did like the idea of retirement. A good article for those of us as later career professionals. Even good for anyone on the life journey to think about transitions down the track

13.01.2022 We all need down time, time out of the line as they say! Its all a question of balance!

13.01.2022 For the next 24 hours, The Guardian will be reporting the global #climatestrike in real time. Click the link in comments to follow our live blog as protests move across the world.

09.01.2022 Looks interesting.

07.01.2022 We all need down time, time out of the line as they say! It’s all a question of balance!

07.01.2022 A good piece on changing our sleep cycle as well as info on alcohol risks and management

06.01.2022 An important article and Ive posted it before but for any of us working with clients its essential to be aware of how clients engage (or not). Its relevant for any helping profession.

05.01.2022 Mentoring relationships of various forms are important at all stages of career development in any profession - even at the latter end. Our mentoring needs change over the journey

03.01.2022 PTSD Awareness Day. So much more awareness and acknowledgement now compared with thirty years ago when I started counselling work with veterans

03.01.2022 Attention Social Work colleagues who are members of the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) - I am standing for election to the Board of Directors. I seek your support and please vote as soon as you get the voting package on line tomorrow. Please read my candidate statement but basically I have three strategies 1. I want to build up the branches to ensure we are truly a membership organisation. ... 2. I’d like to see market research into the wider community and stakeholders then get a sophisticated marketing strategy on the breadth and effectiveness of social work in all areas of our profession. 3. Undertake the review and revitalise the Australian College of Social Work. Together we can do this

03.01.2022 Accredited Mental Health Social Workers can be accessed via a GP referral or clients can self refer. In addition to providing evidence based interventions we work within a client’s context to explore external factors impacting on their overall wellbeing and mental health

03.01.2022 This can be a positive and strengths building thing to do

02.01.2022 The sequelae of trauma is different for most people. One thing is pretty common - people arent the same again whether there is a disorder or post traumatic growth; sometimes a bit of each

02.01.2022 May be of interest for those working in this space
