Explaining what Peer Supported Open Dialogue actually entails can be challenging. Talking about talking in order to explain the content of a network meeting is like trying to hold smoke, as Amanda puts it. In this series we hope to record conversations that are dialogical and form a dialogue, with insights from creators, practitioners and teachers of Open Dialogue. We would love it if we could form a dialogue with you. We would like to quite literally demystify what Open Dialogue is all about by having a dialogue about it.

3.6 Mia Kurtti - it took 15 years
In this episode Gareth and Fiona are joined by Mia Kurtti, who has been working at the heart of what we now call Open Dialogue as it developed in Finland. We ask for her reflections on how this way of working came about and how something that originated in rural Finland can be translated to British shores and embedded into the NHS with our diverse urban populations.
