What People Say About My Work

  • “Associate Prof Kate Murray, School of Psychology and Counselling at the Faculty of Health, Queensland University of Technology (QUT), was instrumental in assisting to facilitate this learning and supported the group to work toward meaningful consultation together” (p. 45)

  • "The book stands out in its ability to showcase the diverse perspectives and experiences of practitioners and their descriptions of the interventions and community outreach being carried out and the strategies they think are needed to advance mental health services in these settings."

    Book cover endorsement by Professor Dixon Chibanda for The Palgrave Handbook of Mental Health Practice in Sub-Saharan Africa

  • "This volume demonstrates that, far from being a passive tabula rasa for the imposition of global mental health interventions, researchers and clinicians in Africa are creating novel ways to support people affected by mental health conditions and their families, drawing on both the 'local' and the 'global' to deliver interventions and approaches which are relevant and acceptable to popular contexts and populations in this diverse and dynamic continent."
