Lemuel Tan
CAMHS/Youth Coordinator for Wheatbelt Mental Health Service
Lemuel is a Psychologist and works from a trauma informed care model providing a diversity of psychological interventions. He is the Acting Child Adolescent Mental Health Service/Youth Coordinator for Wheatbelt Mental Health Service.
Lemuel's experience is that the focus in health services is on physical but not psychological recovery which made him more empathetic to his clients who had limited advocacy and support regarding mental health and trauma.
He believes his clinical skills and experiences can help improve the mental health system through healthy discussions and liaison. Lemuel hopes to improve policies, processes and the organisational culture within his department and hopefully state legislation in the future.
