Loving reading @esylarur's beautifully crafted e-book of her thesis.
"Self-disclosure is [...] an ongoing consideration of intent and impact, an informed decision on what to share in and out of session, as a therapist and as a human being in general."
.@esylarur's findings from her survey with therapists with #livedexperience echo those of the other studies in supporting fear of #stigma as a primary factor in decisions not to share, and the implications for service user experiences of support.
This is the end game for me in supporting the sharing of #livedexperience in the workplace.
We need to change the conversations we have behind closed doors if we're going to better support people accessing #mentalhealth services.
Beautiful visual by @esylarur of why we need to make it safer to share #livedexperience in the workplace.
If we don't, the stereotype of "The Impaired Professional" risks becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Great description of "homely" team where the health of staff was prioritised by the manager and colleagues "had each others' backs".
