From Kizzi Johannessen
As part of my Masters in Advanced Clinical Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy at the Minster Centre. I am looking for participants in my qualitative IPA research   
If you are a qualified therapist (not HCPC registered arts psychotherapist) with experience of using art in your work with clients with Dissociative Identity Disorder, I'd love to hear from you.
This study will take the form of a 60-90 min interview, online or in person by your choice. Recording will be by audio only and participation will be kept confidential, all data will be anonymised. For further details please contact Kizzi Johannessen therapywithkizzi@gmail.com

Invitation to the Therapists' Book Club

We are a supportive bunch and meet one Tuesday a month, online at 7.30- 9.00pm. We meet to choose, read and discuss a therapy related book/ article/ film. We share thoughts about the literature against our personal life experiences, development as practitioners, and within the context of our anonymised client work and hold confidentiality of these discussions their in.

If you are interested in joining us, please drop me an email at therapywithkizzi@gmail.com, we would be very happy to welcome you.
