@steve_jefferis @Assoc_CAT Thanks Steve, your interview was excellent. I am staying with an old med school friend in Hexham for the weekend.

Amazing to see this visual representation of a personality made up of different parts on the carpet of our workshop on using IFS ideas in CAT at the ACAT conference.#ACATconf22

Woking out the essential ingredients of a CAT therapy on the residential course. See what we did with the “observing eye” of reflection?

[Alison Jenaway @AlisonJenaway]

@DueNorthTherapy Would be great to have one of these showing CAT mapping in action?

[Alison Jenaway @AlisonJenaway]

@CatalyseC I love a quote from Tony Ryle “it is possible to do brief therapy using CAT because there are two people working on it”

[Alison Jenaway @AlisonJenaway]

@abrar71 @Assoc_CAT @YouthCAT1 I think a contract with an ending is really important in encouraging people to start to be their own wise parent. Moving on from an individual CAT therapy to a group therapy can be really helpful too.

Encouraging study showing brief engagement in relational therapy after self harm is possible. Innovative to combine elements of PIT and CAT.

@JoeJudgePsy @Assoc_CAT @SmithJak1 @Ali_Marfell @ProfRGWilkinson @cfernyhough We are aiming for May 2021? The problem tends to be finding suitable venues in our price range in English term time.

[Alison Jenaway @AlisonJenaway]

@kcldpsych This is so useful to see the complicated negative self to self roles that get in the way of self care. Thanks for sharing it.

[Alison Jenaway @AlisonJenaway]

@Assoc_CAT @Pipney_Doodles @amblebrecon Fascinating work following on from Susie Black’s evaluation of her generic CAT maps for cancer services. Seems helpful for service users, carers and staff, poeple can say “I’m on the map” and others get it. #PhysCAT19

[Alison Jenaway @AlisonJenaway]

@KatyStepanian Some of us CAT therapists have doubts too, I have created my own version called “The Alternnative Psychotherapy File” but more discussion needed. I suppose it can be a starting point, even though not perfect?

[Alison Jenaway @AlisonJenaway]

Would be great to have some expert yby experience input to this day.#ACATinequality19
