2012: Consumer Experts Informing Our Practice      
This offering will provide a demonstration of consumers and professionals in therapeutic collaboration. Evidence based practice indicates a growing appreciation for professionals working with consumer experts in partnerships which embrace the therapeutic relationship as conceived by Dr. Hildegard Peplau. We can learn from the life experiences of individuals who lead productive lives even with the diagnoses of serious mental illness.
