A blend of the cultural and clinical practice
Māori Mental Health
• In Māori Mental health and Addiction, there is a
highlighted need to prioritise and provide intervention
services earlier and focus on initiatives that lead to
improvements in Māori health;
• There has been a growing need to develop a culturally
safe workforce and cultural programmes; and
• There is emerging evidence, that for Māori, successful
models of engagement and intervention are based in
Māori cultural world views and processes.

Māori/ English resource for working
with children, adolescents and adults
• In response to Kaupapa Māori service
intervention and delivery, we have developed a
set of 80 unique, vibrant inspirational flashcards, featuring Māori children and families;
• The range and option of cards offers a safe and
easy way to start conversations when working
with children, adolescents and adults;
• The cards cover a wide range of emotions,
feelings and states of being;
• They are distinctively Aotearoa, Māori, NZ.
The importance of our cultural
stories within clinical practice
• Our presentation demonstrates one of the ways we
have incorporated both the clinical and cultural
practice;
• Which is through the telling of one of our local tribal
narratives of Tauranga Moana in the Bay of Plenty;
• During the workshop you will have an opportunity to
experience the use of the cards and to give feedback
at the end;
• The resource has been developed for working with
people in health or education settings.
