Person-centred recovery planning for mental health and well-being self-help tool

Overview

The World Health Organization’s QualityRights Person-centred recovery planning for mental health and well-being self-help tool guides people through the process of setting up a recovery plan for themselves.  

The tool has been designed so that people can use it on their own or in collaboration with others.  For example it can be used as a framework for dialogue and discussion between people using services and service providers or other supporters. 

The self-help tool starts by introducing what recovery is and what it means for people in their lives. The tool then takes people through an exercise of identifying their dreams and goals, how to create a wellness plan as well as planning ahead for difficult time or crises during their recovery journey. 

People using this self-help tool  will be taken through a series of self-reflective exercises that encourage an understanding of self, and how to draw on their network of support.
