Name John Cologon Address Richardson, ACT Phone Email john@jcologon.com Webpage www.jcologon.com Hope for connection I'm interested both in narrative practice and in narratively informed psychotherapy integration. By "narratively informed psychotherapy integration", I mean remaining open to the elements of wisdom contained in the 400 or more other stories (which some people prefer to call theories) of psychotherapy contained in various discourses. In practice, this means beginning a conversation from the standpoint of narrative practice, but being open to incorporating elements of other stories as threads within the new tapestry that the client and I are weaving, if our conversation goes to places that seem to resonate in some way with elements of those stories.

Name Christine Wever Address The Narrative Centre, 42 Warwick Street, North Hobart TAS 7000 Phone (03) 6231 6872 Email chrisw@keypoint.com.au Webpage Hope for connection I have been engaged with narrative practice, teaching, co-visioning/supervision and conferencing for some 17 years. I love the passion and power of the work, and the way it invites me to more consciously position myself in relation to discourse, constructing less governed and sometimes sacred spaces in which meaningful and beautiful connections can be forged with people and local communities. It's exciting to story people's hopes, and dreams, their pain, their wisdoms, and the myriad triumphs of everyday experience.
