Michelle Orr on SF in Suicide Prevention. In today’s episode, we talk with Michele Orr, Mental Health Nurse, Team Leader and pioneer of the Brief Intervention Team in Adult Community Mental Health in Eastern Metropolitan Melbourne, Solution-Focused Practitioner, and Board Member of the ASFA (Australasian Solution Focused Association), about her use of Solution Focus in the Suicide Prevention Space. Check out what fascinates her with Solution Focus, when she first got in touch with SF, and how she started working with it. Find out what helps her to bring in SF in a problem saturated world, how she applies SF in her team meetings and in the organisation, how people with suicidal thoughts react to her solution-focused way of talking, and how she shifts conversations about critical incidents and difficult situations. Learn more about her new research project to show the effectiveness of SF in suicide prevention, and how to elicit reasons for living and the „insteadiness“. Listen to what is sometimes difficult and how she manages to deal with that, how to maintain your SF fitness, and connecting to the SF community worldwide. And check out the challenge of the week: Come up with the first 10 things that come to your mind that you do well in your SF work. The post SFP 104 – A Regular Dose of Solution Focus: SF in the Suicide Prevention Space with Michele Orr appeared first on SF on tour.
