Black Dog Institute: Short Mental Health Interventions- Encouraging Physical Activity, webinar

Short Mental Health Interventions- Encouraging Physical Activity


Mental health is the number one reason people see their GPs, yet GPs are time poor and wait times to see psychologists are long. The need for mental health care is growing faster than specialised support and services are, leaving a gap in patient care. This webinar series aims to provide GPs and other health professionals with skills to ‘fill the gap’ in providing mental health care to their patients using a range of brief interventions. Each webinar will be a discussion about the specific intervention and tips on how to use it effectively with your patients. This webinar will focus on health professionals’ real experiences of promoting an encouraging physical activity in practice, its usefulness, and any barriers/solutions for patients.
