The HUMANE clinic is a space that values the autonomy and empowerment of individuals and provides an alternative to diagnosis led approaches. Understanding a human being as a unique, autonomous soul, acknowledgement is made of the many ways an individual might perceive and experience mental distress or other meaningful reality. HUMANE clinic values the human to human relationship as an opportunity for an individual to develop meaning in their life, valuing the process of working through the story of a person's experience. Acknowledging that we cannot cure another person, or presume to know what is wrong with another person, The HUMANE clinic takes the view that the individual should be the arbiter of their own experiences, the author and teller of their own story and be in control of their own life journey. At the HUMANE clinic the individual seeking support is considered the best person to understand and making sense of their mental distress. The HUMANE Clinic intends to be alongside another person as she or he discovers what is meaningful through acceptance of the experiences and how she or he might feel empowered to create the best life for themselves.
