“…The third most commonly identified facilitative factor was good understanding across professionals/services (k = 9) (Holmesland et al 2014;McLean 2012;O'Herlihy et al, Unpub. data;Ødegård 2005;Smith & Mogro-Wilson 2007;Spong et al 2013 I, II, III;Vostanis et al 2012).…”

The results are consistent with findings from previous reviews of interagency collaboration across adult and child services: there were some indications of benefit; and facilitating and inhibiting factors involved working relationships and multi-agency processes, resources and management. The identification of these factors has implications for practitioners, service managers, trainers, commissioners and researchers.

“…Differing perspectives/cultures across professionals/services was also identified in eight studies as a barrier to interagency collaboration (Hamill & Boyd 2001;Pettitt & Britain 2003;Ødegård 2005;McLean 2012;O'Reilly et al 2013;Burkey et al 2014;Holmesland et al 2014;O'Herlihy et al Unpub. data).…”

“…Holmesland and her colleagues (Holmesland et al., , ) also explored the Open Dialogue approach through interviews with professionals and observations of the network meetings. They found that this transdisciplinary approach called for a process of role transformation by the professional; a release of role by reducing the impact of therapeutic skills and allowing the help‐seeker to guide the communication with the aim of increasing their activity.…”

“…Network dialogues initiated by mental health services to help adolescents with psychosocial difficulties in the southern part of Norway have been explored. In southern Norway dialogical and network‐oriented practices have been implemented, developed and explored over the last two decades (Bjørnstad, ; Bøe et al., ; Grosås, ; Hauan, ; Holmesland, Seikkula & Hopfenbeck, ; Holmesland et al., ; Lidbom et al., ; Ropstad, ; Ulland, Andersen, Larsen, & Seikkula, 2013). Dialogical practices, in this context, refer to initiatives that include persons in the social network of the help‐seeker through network meetings, where the aim is to facilitate change‐generating dialogues.…”

Studies exploring the experiences of recovering from mental health difficulties show the significance of social and relational aspects. Dialogical practices operate within the realm of social relations; individual perspectives are not the primary focus of attention. The present study is part of a series of qualitative studies from southern Norway, exploring dialogical practices and change from the perspective of lived experience and in relationship with network meetings. Two co-researchers, who themselves had experienced mental health difficulties, were part of the research team. Material from qualitative interviews was analysed through a dialogical hermeneutical process where ideas from Emmanuel L evinas and Mikhail Bakhtin were used as analytical lenses. Six interdependent dimensions emerged from our interpretative analysis, comprising three temporal dimensions (1. Dialogues open the moment, 2. Dialogues open the past, and 3. Dialogues open the future) and three dimensions of speaking, which operated across the three temporal dimensions (4. Ethical: Dialogues open through inviting attentiveness and valuing, 5. Expressive: Dialogues open for new vitality, and 6. Hermeneutical: Dialogues open for new meaning). These dimensions were incorporated into one main theme: Dialoguesbeginning by others being invitingly attentiveopen for moving and living. The way the findings point to change events as an opening for movement -'moving in' as if from the outside, and 'moving on' as opposed to being stuckare discussed in relation to other studies.We conclude by suggesting that the salient point of change-generating conversations is in the ethics of being invitingly attentive, and such conversations should take into account multidimensionality, that relates to the past and the future.

“…Building on this, Golding (2010) clearly identified the need for effective collaboration between carers and service providers in the care system as crucial to achieving successful treatment and support. Interventions focused on helping carers to increase the nurturing, attachment-based, and family-centred responses to the traumatised children they are caring for, within sometimes chaotic family, social, and institutional systems, have been shown to represent a trauma-informed approach to therapeutic care provision (Beach & Inui, 2006;Bloom, 1999;Dudgeon, Milroy, & Walker, 2014;Eddy, Dishion, & Stoolmiller, 1998;Holmesland, Siekkula, & Hopfenbeck, 2014;Lawlor & Mattingley, 1998;MacKean, Thurston, & Scott, 2005;McConachie & Logan, 2003;Raghavendra et al, 2007).…”

This paper reviews the literature on human relational factors and their impact on complex care systems for a highly vulnerable population of children and young people in out‐of‐home care (OOHC). Factors contributing to the functioning of collaborative OOHC systems are reviewed from theoretical and contextual perspectives. The authors posit that secondary traumatic stress and vicarious trauma are central to understanding the impact of relational trauma and the experience of individuals, families, teams, and the wider ecology of collaborative care systems. Given the challenges of working collaboratively across interpersonal, family, and systems boundaries to support traumatised children in OOHC, further research is required.
