December 2016 Collab Salon: Honoring histories and creating spaces for emerging practices
Narrative practices have evolved in many ways over the decades in response to changing professional, social and cultural contexts. In this Collab Salon, we unveil a new Re-authoring Teaching series that builds on our deep respect for narrative therapy while creating spaces for an interplay with other cherished approaches. What might become possible when the somatic and the linguistic shape therapeutic endeavors? How can we put language and understanding around an integration that resonates both philosophically and practically?
November 2016 Collab Salon: Justice-Doing in therapy & community work
Vikki & Michael offer an alternative approach to work with trauma, which focuses on the resistance of victims of violence and oppression. Drawing from a decolonizing and justice-doing stance, their activist analysis resists the neutral and medicalised language of ‘trauma’, and names the contexts of social injustice that create the conditions for suffering. Honouring the wisdom of the people we work alongside in their acts of resistance and responses to trauma brings forward their agency and wisdom - creating identities of knowledge, autonomy and strength, as opposed to victim/survivor identities, or other spoiled identities.We will address structuring safety as the foundation of the work, alternative understandings of the way trauma works, and the duty of the witness to work towards justice-doing, connection of private pain with public issues.
October 2016 Collab Salon: Arts & Media in Narrative Practice
