Background

Dr Viliunas has taught at both secondary and post-graduate level, in Arts, Science, Environmental and Psychological Medicine; performed regular medical segments on radio and television; served on the Psychologists Board of Queensland, consulted to the Medical Board of Queensland, and provided mentoring and professional supervision. These experiences have all facilitated her appreciation of the subtlety and potency of legitimate authority and its capacity to influence in education and change. Dr. Viliunas' work has been in indigenous and trans-cultural medicine, psychiatry, specialist psychotherapy and medical ethics. Very different personal and cultural understandings of the interplay of heart, mind, spirit, society and place are everywhere. Yet the universality of human experience remains a fundamental motivator in her work with MAPW.
