Mental Health: A Person-centred Approach equips students with the tools they need to provide exceptional personfocused care when supporting improved mental health of diverse communities. The third edition has been updated and restructured to provide a more logical and comprehensive guide to mental health practice. It includes new chapters on traumainformed care, different mental health conditions and diagnoses, suicide and self-harm and the mental health of people with intellectual or developmental disabilities. Significant updates have been made to the chapters on the social and emotional wellbeing of First Nations Australians and mental health assessment. Taking a narrative approach, the text interweaves personal stories from consumers, carers and workers with lived experience. Each chapter contains ‘Translation to Practice’ and ‘Interprofessional Perspective’ boxes, reflection questions and end-of-chapter questions and activities to test students’ understanding of key theories. Written by experts in the field, Mental Health remains an essential, person-centred resource for mental health students. •
