inside out & associates australia is a respected provider of co-designed recovery-based training and consultation in mental health.

We create opportunities to better understand mental distress and what this means for people who have these experiences, families, communities and service systems.

We draw on diverse perspectives about the nature of mental distress, believing that being open to different ways of making sense of these experiences leads to more creative, inclusive and hopeful responses.

We believe that helpful responses to mental distress require authentic dialogue and true collaboration between all of us impacted by these experiences with a particular emphasis on understanding lived experience.
