Your guide to creating lasting change, self-worth and positive mental health
We are a society that no longer takes mental health for granted. We've come a long way from the 'get over it' mentality that forced many of us to try to deal with our problems alone. Treatment options have become better and more sophisticated, and we now work actively to prevent mental health conditions.
Healthy self-worth is essential for good mental health. Someone with healthy self-worth is more likely to have better coping skills, greater resilience and the ability to maintain long-term positive mental health.
The MindShift Foundation, led by founder and CEO Elizabeth Venzin, is a registered charity dedicated to preventative mental health awareness and advocacy. Prevention, awareness and education are important keys to understanding mental health.
In this book, you'll find practical information and useful resources to help grow your self-worth or assist someone you care about with theirs. MindShift to a Better Place helps you identify the signs of low self-worth, guides you on how and where to seek appropriate treatment and assists you in taking those steps forward to create healthy self-worth, positive wellbeing and strong mental health.
Elizabeth Venzin established The MindShift Foundation in 2013. With a background in corporate leadership, her determined advocacy for better preventative mental health initiatives has led to successful public health campaigns, lobbying of state and federal governments, and now this book. Elizabeth is a frequent guest on ABC Radio and is a tireless campaigner and speaker on the importance of preventative mental health for individuals, families, communities and workplaces. Dr Lars Madsen is a clinical psychologist who has worked in both the United Kingdom and Australia in community and hospital settings. He completed his Masters degree in Clinical Psychology in Australia before obtaining a PhD in Psychology at University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne in England. As well as his experience in working with anxiety, trauma, and behaviour problems, Dr Madsen also has a special interest in helping clients with low self-worth.
