Jim has developed
an interest in the study of storylines and has developed a conversational
map for scaffolding people’s storylines throughout the therapeutic
process. As well, he has been particularly excited to learn more about
what creates a fertile context for those arresting moments that occur
when people experience realizations and possibilities for movement forward
in the therapeutic conversation. These ideas and more are all part of
the Narrative Research Project underway in collaboration with University
of Toronto.
|
Karen has a special interest in developing, practicing and teaching narrative therapy in brief settings such as the walk-in therapy clinic she has worked at over the past six years. She has developed guidelines for therapeutic conversations that pull together postmodern ideas and narrative practices in ways that make it very possible to use them in any setting.
|
Eric is the senior
out-patient social worker and residential training coordinator at the
Hincks-Dellcrest Centre. He has an extensive background in social constructionist
therapies with youth and their families. Eric has a special interest in
experiential (both adventure and mindfulness-based approaches) with families
and groups, as well as addressing issues related to anxiety and depression.
|
Scot has an interest and passion
for brief narrative therapy and community practice. He presents a wide range of interest in
the application of non-structuralist theory to various contexts including
school settings, parents in distress, foster care/ group home settings,
and single-session encounters.
