Episode 14; This is Part 3 of A Conversation about Mental Health with Fred Fata.

In this episode Fred and I continue our conversation around Mental Health and Mental Health support.

In part 1, our conversation started with what a personal and professional experience with MH and MH support look like. In part 2 we learn about Fred’s career path that took him from child protection, youth justice, working in women’s prisons to forensic mental health and supporting young mothers with drug and alcohol addictions.

Part 3 we talk about what good support looks like on a day-to-day basis, during times of need, and the value of authenticity.

This conversation is part 3 of a multipart series. See Episode 8 for part 1 and Episode 10 for part 2
