We are excited to inform you of this new Systemic Conference to kick start the Summer which will showcase the creative work of systemic professionals. It will be an opportunity to learn, to connect with colleagues and friends, and to make new connections with others.

Paul Andrews (Systemic Psychotherapist)

Rachael Horay (Family Support Worker)

Dr Ramón Karamat Ali (Couple and Family Therapist, Supervisor, & Researcher)

At KA Conversations we are delighted to welcome Nolan Africa to our Conference, who will be sharing his experiences as a South African Actor, theatre producer and most recently in drama therapy. Nolan will be talking about different projects he has been involved with. He will be joined by our very own Heidi Karamat Ali who will be talking about how she is integrating her core training as a human ecologist and community developer with her knowledge and experience as a systemic professional.

The second keynote speaker of the morning will be by Dr Robynne Wadsworth who has a particular interest in working with clients outside of the confines of the consulting room. She will share with us her developing practices in working more creatively.

After lunch, there will be several afternoon workshops offered by practitioners sharing their expertise and passion for systemic work. The first one will be by Nolan Africa and Heidi Karamat Ali around their recent collaboration around offering a retreat to older adolescents and young adults combining create arts and emotional wellbeing practices. In the second workshop Paul Andrews and Rachael Horay will further develop the theme of ‘therapy in the outdoors’ by sharing their work with young people and families in nature. In the third workshop Ramón Karamat Ali will be taking us on a journey of self-exploration by applying systemic and attachment-informed themes to personal and professional development of those in the helping professions.

With experience of organising other systemic conferences in the past, we know this will be a wonderful event, made special by all those attending (presenters and participants alike).
