Born and raised in South Africa, the extensive travels of Josh Roberts include ventures deep into the state of mind called bipolar type 1. Josh combines his lived experience in the mental health system with his education in psychology (BA from the University of South Africa) and theology (MA from Fuller Theological Seminary). His passion is to create a synergy between the inner and outer worlds through optimizing mental health. He works with prominent mental health providers in San Diego, California including NAMI, Mental Health Systems, and Interfaith in supporting many of those who are most affected by mental health struggles. He’s an avid surfer, riding the currents of his American lucid dream with his wife and two young daughters.

A huge fan of my work, I wanted to interview Josh about what he does and how his own alternative perspective to mental health fits in with NAMI!
