32. How to look after your mental health with Psychiatrist Professor Sandra Radovini

For our final episode in Season Four, we wanted to talk about another major barrier many of us experience to being able to do the work we care about: good mental health. So we asked our colleague Professor Sandra Radovini if she would have a chat with us. Sandra is a Consultant Psychiatrist and Director of Mindful, the Victorian state-wide Child & Adolescent Mental Health teaching and training unit for professionals working with children, young people and their families. Mindful is part of the Department of Psychiatry at The University of Melbourne. Sandra has held a number of key leadership positions in Mental Health: she was the inaugural Chief Child Psychiatrist in the Office of the Chief Psychiatrist with the Victorian Department of Health from 2009 to 2011 and she was the inaugural Clinical Director of Headspace from 2012 to 2016.
