What does lived experience really mean and why is it important?
The phrase "lived experience" is widely used in behavioral health, but what does it really mean? Is lived experience a code word meaning "former mental patient?" Isn't all experience "lived experience" and therefore isn't "lived experience" redundant? Can a clinician have lived experience? In this 90-minute webinar, the origins of "lived experience" in philosophy and its migration into behavioral health will be explored.
