I am a UKCP registered psychotherapist and a certified Open Dialogue practitioner, having completed a two year training in the Open Dialogue approach with Mary Olson, Jaakko Seikkula, Markku Sutela and others. I am also the founder of Open Dialogue UK, which has established the first full training in the Open Dialogue approach outside of Western Lapland. I have more than 20 years experience working in a variety of mental health settings, and considerable experience working with people experiencing psychosis and their families. Along with participants on the first full Open Dialogue training in the UK, I am working with families in London, both at the Open Dialogue UK premises and on home visits.
