Autorenporträt
Anthony Smith, former board member of Suicide Prevention Australia, is at the forefront of a movement that aims to change the way we consider mental health and suicide prevention. He is co-author of papers and reports promoting the Situational Approach, a concept that offers a fresh way of considering mental health by taking situational factors (such as economic and social disadvantage, and workplace stress) into account when diagnosing and treating depression and anxiety disorders.For more than two decades Anthony has worked across Australia with networks such as primary health, the life insurance industry, men's sheds and human resources, and at the community level in suicide prevention and research, built on collaborative work with a regional coroner's office.
