One individual said it is our job not to 'help' but to accompany and to enable, that people with mental health illness do not need help, they need company, such a beautiful sentiment that I will carry with me into my future practice! #HongKongTripOT@CovUniOT#occupationaltherapy
An amazing first couple of days in Hong Kong after flight delays... Had introductory lectures and experienced a 'Human Library' where people who have experienced mental illness talk openly about their journey, their honesty was truly inspirational! @CovUniOT#occupationaltherapy
