Recovery-oriented mental health practice
Recovery-oriented mental health practice focuses on supporting individuals to live meaningful, fulfilling lives despite mental health challenges. It emphasizes personal strengths, hope, and individual goals rather than just managing symptoms. Clinicians work collaboratively with clients, respecting their autonomy and choices, to empower them in their recovery journey. This approach recognizes that recovery is a personal process that varies for each individual and may include building resilience, developing skills, and reconnecting with community and relationships. Ultimately, it aims to help people lead satisfying lives according to their own values, regardless of ongoing mental health issues.
