In May The Psych Review attended the 2024 RANZCP Congress in Canberra and presented a live and interactive episode direct from Ngunnawal Country. Alanna explores the nuance of the digital therapeutic alliance, Shakira broadens our understanding of the impact of racism in the clinical setting, and Dave guides us through a session covering the benefits of heated yoga.
