Through a different lens- Shona Russell

Shona Russell (Narrative Practices Adelaide) looks back 25 years to reflect on her search for a respectful non-medicalized approach to working with children and families experiencing difficulties and mental health crises.This video is part of a three-part series that focuses on Shona's journey toward becoming a narrative therapist/teacher.
After Michael White's death in 2008, Maggie Carey, Shona Russell and Rob Hall renamed the small centre that Michael got started, “Narrative Practices Adelaide” (NPA). NPA had a strong desire to continue with Michael’s aims and intentions in a way that would fit with the sentiment of what he had proposed. “We see ourselves as a small, vibrant centre that collaborates with other centres and that acknowledges the rich and varied history of Michael’s work.”
NPA closed its doors in 2020. Maggie and Shona are now retired.
Thank you Maggie and Shona for all you have given to so many!
