Abstract

Accessible summary: What is known on the subject: Integrating strengths‐based, co‐produced, consumer‐driven resources into mental health workforce education has the potential to dissolve hierarchical mental health care relationships. What the paper adds to existing knowledge: Humanities‐based pedagogy that draws from photography and multi‐voiced narratives is a powerful reflective learning tool to bridge clinical and human experiences of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).The Depth of Field reflective learning methodology aims to provoke, prod, reveal and challenge assumptions and/or unconscious bias towards BPD and stimulate raw and reflective discussions that have the potential to inspire critical reflection and move health professionals towards more humanistic, recovery centred models of mental health care. What are the implications for mental health nursing: At the core of co‐production in research, education and practice lies a reciprocal, transformational learning experience. This relationship needs to be further explored in order to reframe mental health education that honours and legitimizes consumers as experts of their own lives and recovery experiences.
