The Optimal Health Program (OHP) is the result of years of research which builds on an individual's strengths and promotes self-efficacy and hope. OHP can be conducted as a group or individually by trained people over a number of weeks. It explores the domains of wellbeing and what this means to a wide audience who may include consumers, carers or health practitioners. OHP offers a framework that supports a conversation about wellbeing rather than illness and the opportunity to reflect, write down ideas and respond to an individual’s needs without having to give solutions.
