Working in Pairs
At an innovative site of psychiatric crisis care work, dialogically trained clinicians in Berlin, Germany transformed the skills learned from the Open Dialogue approach into a means for building solidarity in the face of precarious health structures. Learning to sit with unknowing and tolerate uncertainty, at first developed as techniques to support clients in crisis, became a way by which these clinicians navigated a shifting and unsteady health…
Integrating Open Dialogue with coordinated specialty care in a Southeastern U.S. public hospital
Person-centered treatment modalities are showing increasing promise for psychosis. • We implemented a joint Open Dialogue and Coordinated Specialty Care framework. • Clinicians experienced tensions and personal transformation during implementation. • A treatment framework such as this may aid in larger systemic change. • Successful implementation requires tools to navigate tensions and difficulties
Implementing peer support work in mental health care in Germany
BACKGROUND: Starting in the 1990s in the United States, individuals with lived experience of mental health crises and recovery have been employed as peer support workers (PSWs) internationally. However, the implementation of PSW in clinical contexts remains challenging. METHODS: This manuscript presents and discusses the methodological framework of the ImpPeer-Psy5 study on the PSW implementation in the German mental healthcare sector. This study…
Feasibility of an Open Dialogue-Inspired Approach for Young Adults with Psychosis in a Public Hospital System
Competing Responsibilities and the Distribution of Outcome through Dialogic Practice
Crisis intervention teams in Berlin, Germany use a form of dialogic practice - a therapeutic approach based on the relational meaning of language - to develop an alternative means of negotiating risk and evaluating "outcome" in psychiatric experience. These clinicians bring familial networks into the process of crisis management, revealing meaningful "outcomes" regarding crisis care to be tethered to local concepts of chronicity and responsibilit…
Ethnography in Health Services Research
The well-known divergence between what policy and protocol look like on paper, and what happens in the actual practice of daily life remains a central challenge in health services provision and research. This disparity is usually referred to as the theory-practice gap and contributes to concerns that scientific evidence fails to make substantial impacts on the processes of service delivery. In this article, we present an argument for the inclusio…
Sympathetic Care
German clinicians working with psychiatric crises employ an alternative therapy called Open Dialogue to excavate the family histories and interpersonal relationships of their clients. In learning to do this, they perform role-play exercises in which familial narratives are imagined and improvised. Through this process, they develop an embodied practice in which they attune to misalignments in the network through words
Gestures of Care and Recognition
This collection of essays offers an exploration of care as a gesture of recognition. As both object of inquiry and ethnographic representation, care is examined as the work of discerning and representing traces. The introduction and subsequent essays grapple with the work of writing about absent others, and how the anthropological endeavor might itself be considered a form of care
Care Wounds
Signing on for dirty work
As applied anthropologists used to working at arm's length from public psychiatry, we step out of the daily grind to take stock of the challenges of taking on ethnography entrained-harnessed to the implementation of a new program. These include the loss of critical distance, the struggles to negotiate locally viable forms of authority and relevance, the necessity of sustaining a Janus-faced relation with principal players, the urgency of seeing t…
