On the Threshold. Through Windows and Doors: Arts Therapy with people with Learning Disabilities who are in hospital. People with Learning Disabilities will very often have experiences of exclusion, relational trauma and limited choice over what happens in their lives, this can contribute to a presentation of psychic and even physical retreat. In this talk Roz will look at how Arts Psychotherapies can work in inpatient settings and can provide a creative direct and indirect experience of making contact. She will discuss how closed doors can represent the closed off and exclusive experience of individuals and a retreat from the outside world. Working through windows and doors and on the threshold, we meet people where they are and allow patients to have a safer experience of relationship where they can enter and retreat physically and psychically creating a translational space and room for connection and creativity. - 14.25 Respondent: Mizuho Koizumi, Art Psychotherapist in the Learning Disability and Autism Service in inpatients in the NHS and IPD committee member - 14.35 Questions - 14.45 Break Session 2 Chair of session 2: Dr Georgina Parkes, Treasurer of IPD, Consultant Psychiatrist in Learning Disability in NHS - 15.00 Sarah Lau Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and Speech and language Therapist We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain; We need to paint with all the colours of the wind Sarah trained at WPF Therapy and practises in London and East Anglia.
