Optional title: Are Open Dialogue outcomes in acute psychosis too unsual to be taken seriously?

The frame of Open Dialogue Relational mind: inner relations – voices of the mind and social relations Mutual rhytmic dance of responding at the present moment In the practice the primary focus is on what happens between us and the voices – not on the inner qualities: how to make the other heard in our answers

Accepting the other without conditions

“... authentic human life is the open- ended dialogue. Life by its very nature is dialogic. To live means to participate in dialogue: to ask questions, to heed, to respond, to agree, and so forth. In this dialogue a person participates wholly and throughout his whole life: with his eyes, lips, hands, soul, spirit, with his whole body and deeds. He invests his entire self in discourse, and this discourse enters into the dialogic fabric of human life, into the world symposium.” (M. Bakhtin, 1984)

Three hypothesis ”Psychosis” does not exist Psychotic symptoms are not symptoms of an illness - strategy for our embodied mind to survive strange experiences Longstanding psychotic behaviour is perhaps more an outcome of poor treatment in two respect - treatment starts all too late - non adequate understanding of the problem leads to a wrong response

Challenges for treatment of psychotic problems Clients become not heard- neither the patient nor the family members Over-emphasize on inpatient treatment – patients disposed to others’ psychotic behavior (J. Cullberg) Over-emphasize in medication – increases the risk for harms for brain functions and untimely deaths Over-emphasize in patholozising the problems – resources are not seen

Psychotic behavior is response More usual than we have thought – not only patients - “psychosis belongs to life” Hallucinations include real events in one’s life – victim of traumatic incidents – not as reason Embodied knowledge – non conscious instead of unconscious – experiences that do not yet have words Listen to carefully to understand - guarantee all the voices being heardall the voices being heard Brake the myths: ”neurotoxic” or ”sociotoxic”

Origins of open dialogue Initiated in Finnish Western Lapland since early 1980’s - Treatment meeting 1984 Need-Adapted approach – Yrjö Alanen Integrating systemic family therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy

What is Open Dialogue? Guidelines for clinical practice Systematic analysis of the own practice. In Tornio since 1988: Most scientifically studied psychiatric system? Systematic psychotherapy training for the entire staff. In Tornio 1986: Highest educational level of the staff?

MAIN PRINCIPLES FOR ORGANIZING SOCIAL NETWORK ORIENTATED TREATMENT SYSTEM IMMEDIATE HELP SOCIAL NETWORK PERSPECTIVE FLEXIBILITY AND MOBILITY RESPONSIBILITY PSYCHOLOGICAL CONTINUITY TOLERANCE OF UNCERTAINTY DIALOGISM

IMMEDIATE HELP First meeting in 24 hours Crisis service for 24 hours All participate from the outset Psychotic stories are discussed in open dialogue with everyone present The patient reaches something of the ”not- yet-said”

SOCIAL NETWORK PERSPECTIVE Those who define the problem should be included in the treatment process A joint discussion and decision on who knows about the problem, who could help, and who should be invited into the treatment meeting Family, relatives, friends, fellow workers, and other authorities

FLEXIBILITY AND MOBILITY The response is need-adapted to fit the special and changing needs of every patient and their social network The place for the meeting is jointly decided From institutions to homes, to working places, to schools, to polyclinics etc.

RESPONSIBILITY The one who is first contacted is responsible for arranging the first meeting The team takes charge of the whole process regardless of the place of the treatment All issues are openly discussed between the doctor in charge and the team

TOLERANCE OF UNCERTAINTY To build up a scene for a safe enough process To promote the psychological resources of the patient and those nearest him/her To avoid premature decisions and treatment plans To define open

DIALOGICITY Emphasis on generating dialogue - not primarily in promoting change in the patient or in the family New words and joint language for the experiences, which do not yet have words or language Listen to what the people say, not to what they mean Accept the other without conditions

Becoming transparent Everyone participates from the outset in the meeting All things associated with analyzing the problems, planning the treatment and decision making are discussed openly and decided while everyone present

Starting by clients words Meeting can be conducted by one therapist or the entire team can participate in interviewing Task for the facilitator(s) is to open the meeting with open questions; to guarantee every voice becoming heard; to build up a place for reflective comments among the professionals; to conclude the meeting with definition of what have we done.every voice becoming heard

Creating new language among staff Professionals discuss openly of their own observations while the network is present There is no specific reflective team, but the reflective conversation is taking place by changing positions from interviewing to having a dialogue

Variations: Acute Team in Tromsso Dr. Magnus Hald and Annrita Gjertzen Acute team in connection with the acute ward Good strength (n=15/70 000), work from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day, night duty in the ward All contacts to acute psychiatry via the team Reflective processes as the form of dialogues – one interviews, the othe one(s) listening and commenting later on Two years training for the staff (”Relation and network education”)

Variations: Children and Adolescent Psychiatric Unit in Gällivare, Schweden Dr. Eva Kjellberg Serves large area with inh Nearly connected to social care After referral always the first meeting together with the family, the referedd authority and relevant others Need for further treatment decreased rapidly when the network mobilized Reflective processes as the form of dialogue Two years training

Variations: Home Treatment Teams in Germany Dr. Volkmar Aderhold and Nils Greve Ambulatory services for acute patients and others in the psychiaric units (population can be e.g to )(N= 22 teams at the moment) Insurance driven practice – specific agrement with insurance companies of a project period – evaluation started Two years training

Dialogical practice is effective Open Dialogues in Tornio – first psychosis, 5 years follow-up (Seikkula et al., 2006): - 35 % needed antipsychotic drugs - 81 % no remaining psychotic symptoms - 81% returned to full employment

COMPARISON OF 5-YEARS FOLLOW-UPS IN WESTERN LAPLAND AND STOCKHOLM ODAP Western LaplandStockholm* N = 72N=71 Diagnosis: Schizophrenia 59 %54 % Other non-affective psychosis 41 %46 % Mean age years female male Hospitalization days/mean Neuroleptic used 33 %93 % - ongoing 17 %75 % GAF at f-u 6655 Disability allowance or sick leave19 %62 % *Svedberg, B., Mesterton, A. & Cullberg, J. (2001). First-episode non-affective psychosis in a total urban population: a 5-year follow-up. Social Psychiatry, 36:

Outcomes stable 2003 – 2005 (Aaltonen et al., 2011 and Seikkula et al, 2011): - DUP declined to three weeks - about 1/3 used antipsychotic drugs - 84 % returned to full employment - Few new schizophrenia patients: Annual incidence declined from 33 (1985) to 2-3 / (2005)

Final questions? Are these results realistic? Why Open Dialogue is not adopted as the main way of treatment? My own private hypothesis of the outcomes: - because of the dialogue - because of the selective use of antipsychotics: avoiding harm for brain and motivating the team

“Love is the life force, the soul, the idea. There is no dialogical relation without love, just as there is no love in isolation. Love is dialogic.” (Patterson, D. 1988) Literature and spirit: Essay on Bakhtin and his contemporaries, 142)
