I am a psychiatrist working in psychotherapy in Manchester - links with Child Concern, PIT and CAT

Another study linked to the patient preference trial comparing CAT guided self help with its CBT counterpart - focus on ideographic change mechanisms - Headley etc al Types and mechanisms of idiographic change during guided self-help for anxiety #CATGSH https://t.co/1KkWIGCc9i

For the first time, we've shown that relational depth in a close relationship (outside of therapy) predicts personal wellbeing. That is, the more moments of in-depth connection, the better we feel. More evidence that relationships are key to wellbeing https://t.co/IbzTEIyol2

@FreefromTorture @haoussou Inspirational Kolbassia- thank you!

[Frank Margison @FrankCW9]

@concern_child Excellent presentation of a very important approach to drug and alcohol misuse managed within a specialist team within the Family Court

[Frank Margison @FrankCW9]

@CatalyseC Good to see a real-world, client-preference study showing a relational therapy like CAT being having similar effectiveness to CBT. Good for choice and plurality of approaches.

@PJTaylorClinPsy Good to see that interventions seen as helpful are so linked to relational thinking- worth reading to explore what our clients find positive

[Frank Margison @FrankCW9]

This is a nuanced and careful study that asks some important questions about what it means to ask about “patient preference” in therapy- well worth reading- especially if you are unwise enough to think you already know the answer!

[Mick Cooper @mickcooper77]

Asking clients what they want from therapy, and trying to accommodate these preferences, is right at the heart of evidence-based practice. But what is it actually like for clients to be asked these questions? Accessible summary of recent findings at https://t.co/DB3a6JdERD
