James and Melissa Griffith. Co-Creating Conversations
Description
An Interview with James & Melissa Griffith. The Griffiths discuss how they work with somatic illness and through a case description give a detailed example of this work. Their sensitivity to class, race, ethnicity, spirituality and humanity are made transparent through their sharing a case. They tell a story of the treatment of a young man with severe mental illness, who was brought to this country by his mother. She believed he could be helped, even though she had repeatedly been told that he was hopeless. The Griffiths mix spirituality and political beliefs with medication and caring to assist this family to re-write their story of a possible future.
