Description

In this workshop, participants learn how to interact with people who are mentally ill. They develop an understanding of the challenges these individuals face.

The awareness of mental illnesses is to be sharpened and possible prejudices reduced. Participants learn how to recognise signs of anxiety, depression or other mental states and respond appropriately.

Methods for self-care and maintaining boundaries are presented, as well as professional support offers and assistance options for people with mental illnesses. Empathetic and respectful communication with those affected rounds off the topic.
