Dr.  Lina Haji  worked in the American prison system providing psychological forensic assessments.  Looking to provide an improved experience for forensic clients in the middle of 2020, she opened her own private clinical forensic practice (Rise Psychological Services) specialising in psychological assessment and therapy in Miami, Florida, USA.

During the recording of this podcast, (the aim to interview guests who reveal how they assist in removing addiction and healing Mental health),  Dr Haji's deep passion for helping America's forensic clients to be correctly diagnosed for accurate treatment was extremely clear. 

Our interview with Dr Haji is full of shares about our stories and how the systems in both America and Australia fail us.

This episode is empowering for any person who has been a voluntary or involuntary patient of a psychiatric ward and/or incarcerated in the prison system, both in  America and Australia. 

Additionally, this podcast is an important listen for any person who has someone close to them with problematic substance use  or mental health issues.

We hope you benefit from this podcast as  much as we enjoyed connecting to make this for you. 

Love always,

Mike, Jess and Lina xx
