This episode comes from a listener request. A mental health practitioner working in regional NSW reached out to ask The Peregrine Centre about how practitioners in generalist services can best work with people who are involved in the justice system. We've heard from a number of practitioners about their concerns and uncertainty when working with people involved in the justice system. On this episode, Dr Dayle Raftery talks to Sarah Stevenson, a clinical psychologist working within the forensic system. They discuss helpful things to know about the forensic system, what to do if you get a subpoena request, and how to stay within scope. Through it all, Sarah emphasises that what it really boils down to is being present with the person sitting in front of us.
