(received from Luca and published "as is", translation by Deepl)

As a nurse working in a psychiatric inpatient service, I was surprised at how little the Open Dialogue approach is known, not only among nurses but also among physicians and residents.

I tried to observe the resistance I was encountering by talking about it r to understand the mindset from which they were emerging. 
I learned about the changing landscape within which psychiatry as a medical discipline has developed. 
I do not appreciate the term strategies because it indicates and evokes an almost belligerent attitude in an adversarial context. Instead, I have tried to identify directions in which to move that would allow me to share an approach that is at least interesting to me without aggravating a perceived divide.

In this brief text I would like to share the solutions I have found and am exploring.
