Here we have, in the wild , a mental health clinician involved in selfcare playing dungeons and dragons

Brady Irwin is a mental health social worker working in the #regional#hospital system who also has a mental health, #metal music, and #roleplayinggames#podcast@innerstrengthcheck_

Mental Health Clinicians are professionals who provide clinical assessment, #diagnosis , and #treatment for individuals experiencing #mentalhealthissues

This encompasses a range of practitioners such as #psychiatrists#psychologists#psychiatricnurses#socialworkers#occupationaltherapists, and other allied health professionals trained in mental health care.

Mental health clinicians work across various settings including hospitals, #community health centres, private practices, and mental health organisations.

They offer interventions such as #psychotherapy medication management, #crisisintervention , and support services tailored to the needs of their clients.

Integrating #games into their practice, mental health clinicians utilise therapeutic #boardgames role-playing games, #digitalgames and problem-solving games to enhance engagement and support clients’ wellbeing.

They are more likely, however, to refer clients to appropriate #leisure and #recreation programs running in the community.

If you are a mental health clinician looking to refer clients to gaming programs, I have an extensive list of programs, providers, and individual support workers in the field
