I work as a counsellor in a Doctors Practice in Devon and have been studying the Narrative approach for the past 9 years. I run training courses in Narrative therapy in the UK and put on workshops with invited narrative practitioners in the SW of England and London. I offer supervision in London and in the South West of England and do some private practice. I am looking forward to being linked with others, who share similar approaches to their work, and all that this might offer. |

I currently work with people with eating disorders, and am keen on developing narrative practice in this work and in contributing to the dissemination of narrative theory and practice. My other main interests are the culture of professional teams and the implications of team culture for practice, accountability, and the development of professional identity. My experience of linking with other narrative practitioners is that it adds energy, creativity and a bigger context to the work. |

I have had an interest in narrative practice for many years and completed the post graduate diploma course in 2005. I work with narrative practice in many different areas of my work. I meet on a regular basis with others who are interested in Narrative Practice, and always happy to meet visitors to London. |

I am interested in introducing narrative therapy ideas in my work with people who live with HIV/AIDS. I am hoping to link with people who are developing their skills and knowledge in narrative practice and who wish to share their ideas and experience. I am part of the group of people interested in Narrative Therapy ideas that meets two-monthly in central London. I look forward to building more narrative connections. |

I have been excited by narrative ideas for over 15 years now and have been enthusiastically applying them in a number of settings. I work part time in a child mental health setting and see narrative as something of an alternative to the structuralist approaches which dominate. At the Centre for Narrative Practice, which I co-direct, we hope to contribute to building a narrative community through teaching, conferences and other activities. |

I have worked within children, adolescents and families using a narrative framework for a range of presenting difficulties. I am now working in a learning disability service and am particularly interested in applying narrative ideas and practices at multiple levels. I am hoping to share and develop the use of narrative ideas within the team to help others in the service to use narrative approaches with people with learning disabilities, their families and networks. |

I have been developing my connections and skills in and with narrative practices and ideas for many years, since 1999. I am full-time at Newcastle University where I work with others in researching, writing, teaching, and direct work with children and families. My professional background is as an educational psychologist. Narrative practices are central to all the work I do, and I am interested in connecting with others to develop a community of more creative and collaborative ways of being in society. |

I am currently working in an Adult Community Mental Health Team based in Herefordshire, UK. The Team and my peers fully accept my engagement in Narrative Practices even though the NHS is currently rather CBT-driven. The CBT focus often invites conceptual isolation into my workplace. Thus, I would like to connect with anyone who is prepared to share their narrative inclinations with me! I am also now working from home as a private, part-time Narrative Practitioner and I take private referrals from all sources. I would like to establish a Herefordshire Narrative Practice Group. I would appreciate any ideas concerning getting such a group up and running. |

My primary interest is in developing my practice skills in my work is as a family therapist with young people and their social networks. I also distribute books and journals about narrative practice (primarily from Dulwich Centre Publications) in Europe and beyond. I run training courses in UK and Ireland in narrative practice and put on workshops with invited narrative practitioners from around the world. I hope that joining Narrative Connections will support these different endeavours. |

I am a clinical psychologist working in physical health in the NHS and am particularly interested to make connections with anyone working with narrative ideas in similar settings. I am interested in the application of narrative therapy ideas in the context of physical healthcare, and in an organisation where these ideas are absent at best. I look forward to any opportunities to share experiences, develop ideas and ponder things generally via Narrative Connections. |

I work in private practice as a counsellor and supervisor using narrative therapy practices. I am especially interested in working with those who perceive themselves to be 'disabled' in terms of sensory loss, learning abilities or mental health and also how narrative practices can be used for research. I am currently working with a group of men who are blind or partially sighted (I am also partially sighted) exploring how different vision is linked with identity claims, and how we can re-define blindness. |
