The Summer School for Family Therapy (Leuven, August 2014)

Last week the summer school took place in Leuven.  5 days of intensive work with an international group of experienced family therapists.

It was a fascinating experience, also this year.

New this year was the work with horses on Tuesday afternoon.  See picture.


Making contact with horses made room for reflection on attunement, dialogue, communication, occasioning, ...

Furthermore, there were the contributions of  Jaakko Seikkula, John Shotter, Jim Wilson and Justine van Lawick.  We talked about psychosis, improvisation, conflictual divorce, the relational mind, family secrets, and so on.

We experienced, we reflected and we discussed.

Yes, it was a fascinating experience and I hope that our clients in the coming weeks will benefit from this experience of ours.

  1. I feel energised and want to go on with our mission to enlarge the humanising dialogical practices in many areas of life. We need each other to make it happen, we create hope,

    love Justine
