About this event

This Reflective Space is an online monthly group particularly relevant for 'workers' – GPs, nurses, peer support workers, psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, therapists etc – to reflect on the challenges and rewards of working with people experiencing ‘psychosis’ in the current system.

Those who have an interest in ‘psychosis’ as one of the many forms of human experience may feel alone or alienated in their work. Others may want to share their ways of finding creative solutions. Our hope is that the group will be a source of mutual support, listening, community and belonging.

Facilitated by ISPS Trustees Simon Downer and Jessica Pons.

ISPS promotes psychological and social approaches to psychosis.

ISPS draws together individuals who are interested in the psychological understanding and treatment of the psychoses and supports those who want to develop psychological approaches in their own places of work.

ISPS works to promote greater knowledge of the different psychological approaches to psychosis and psychotic experiences – psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural, arts-based, family and holistic approaches – and their better integration with each other and with pharmaceutical approaches.

ISPS provides a place where professionals, service users and carers can share their ideas, hopes and struggles, and can examine their differences in constructive dialogue and debate.
