When we think about wellbeing is there something vital that is missing?
Hi, welcome.
My name is Dr Cathy Betoin. I'm a clinical psychologist, an experienced teacher and a parent, and I like to encourage people to learn more about the overlooked issue of relationship health.
Now, you've probably all heard about the issue of physical health.
We know that we've learned a lot about what we need to do to take care of our physical health. And then after quite a battle, people realised that mental health was also something very important that we can learn about and we can learn how to take care of.
But my case is there's something also extra that's missing. And that's the issue of relationship health.
Now, my actual case is that relationship health is more important or something that we really need to pay more attention to because it underpins our physical health and our mental health.
Research is really clear on that. Now, the other thing that's interesting about the current time is that there's a science of relationship health, which we can learn. Learn about it in a kind of step-by-step process.
And I draw that science together into something very practical and very accessible called the iMatter Framework. That's just a way of learning what the research is telling us in an easy-to-understand way.
Now, as I say, the reason that this is so valuable to you is that you can use an understanding of relationship health to help improve your own well-being, to support your family, so that might be helping your children or other family members, or to help people in your community.
So in each of those, these core principles can really help you make a difference.
I first set out my belief that something important was missing in an article published in The Psychologist in 2016
You can see that article here: Is there a Gap in Practice Models?
