Dr Lucy Johnstone: ‘Creating more hopeful narratives about emotional distress’
Dr Lucy Johnstone is a Consultant Clinical Psychologist and worked in Adult Mental Health for many years. She has written and lectured widely on critical perspectives in mental health theory and practice. She is a lead author of the 'Power Threat Meaning Framework' (2018), an ambitious and influential project outlining a conceptual alternative to psychiatric diagnosis. Dr Johnstone spoke at this event organised by the Participation and Practice of Rights (PPR) and their campaign ‘A New Script For Mental Health’ as part of the Bluebell Festival.
Is síceolaí cliniciúil comhairleach í an Dr Lucy Johnstone atá ag obair le cúrsaí sláinte mheabhrach le blianta anuas. Tá neart scríofa agus léachtaí déanta aici ar pheirspictíochtaí criticiúla i dteoiric agus cleachtadh shláinte mheabhrach. Is príomhúdar í ar 'Power Threat Meaning Framework' (2018), togra uaillmhianach agus cumhachtach ag cur múnlaí malartacha chun tosaigh seachas diagnóis shíciatrach.
