This network assists narrative therapists to:

• seek out others who are interested in narrative ideas in their own area
• build a sense of community of practice
• find narrative supervision and teaching options in their own area, and
• seek out other people to refer to in other parts of the country and/or world.

As you can see we already have members from Australia, Austria, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Greece, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Russia, South Africa, Trinidad and Tobago, the UK, Italy, Lithuania, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Zambia and the USA! And we are consistently hearing from therapists from other places who are making links through this website.

The rationale for Narrative Connections
Each day we receive emails, phone calls or faxes from narrative practitioners from different parts of Australia and around the world who are hoping to make connections with other people who are interested in narrative ideas in their city or state, or are seeking information about a narrative therapist elsewhere to whom they can refer someone they know. For many years we did the best we could with such requests in an informal manner but at times the frequency of  requests were a bit overwhelming so it seemed time to create a new process to link people together. This is what Narrative Connections is all about. Many years ago, when the Dulwich Centre Newsletter first began, one of its most popular columns was the section in which therapists wrote a small description of themselves and their workplace and indicated whether they would be happy to receive visitors, referrals, etc. Through this column, therapists began to visit each other, make links in their own neighbourhoods and cities, and when travelling overseas could link up with people with a common interest. This proved enormously popular and contributed significantly to building a community of ideas.

With new technology we have now created a similar system. We are inviting practitioners (you!) from different parts of the world to send to us a short description of your links to narrative ideas and your hopes in connecting with other practitioners, a long with information as to whether you are willing to meet with visitors who may be passing through your area, whether you can take referrals, and whether you offer teaching or supervision. You can also send us a photograph if you choose and we will place all this information on this Narrative Connections section of our web site which anyone can then access. We believe that over time a rich tapestry of practitioners will be created.
