Patterns of engagement: The contexts, frequency and characteristics of psychological practice with Indigenous clients. (Discovery Indigenous Researchers Development)

University of South Australia
ARC

Project Summary

The extent and debilitating nature of Indigenous mental health problems has been widely documented. National and community benefits will be derived from the development of strategies enabling psychologists to work more effectively with Indigenous clients to improve their psychological and social well-being and resolve mental health problems. The project will identify how psychologists currently work with Indigenous clients, which will provide data to guide the development of effective strategies to bring about change.
