Hi All,

I want to thank Nick Midgley, who both founded this special interest group of SPR and who provided steady leadership and a creative flair to his position as Founding Chair over the past five years.  Katharina and I hope to provide the same kind of steady leadership to CaFTR and to continue Nick's bold vision for this group in the next three years.  Congratulations, Nick!  I'm feeling relieved you decided to remain active on the Steering Committee!

Geoff

Subject: CaFTR Child and Family Therapy Research e-forum - update

Dear all

I've just come back from the SPR conference in Oxford, where there was a large amount of child therapy research presented, child therapy researchers involved in both the opening and closing plenaries (a first!), a well-attended meeting of the CaFTR special interest group on Thursday lunch-time, as well as a book launch (sadly, without any copies of the book actually available to buy!) for Essential Research Findings in Child and Adolescent Counselling and Psychotherapy that evening.

[N.B. If you missed this before, the book is available on Amazon at https://www.amazon.co.uk/Essential-Research-Adolescent-Counselling-Psychotherapy-ebook/dp/B01MTDHPU3

I hope others who attended will share their experiences of the conference (highlights and impressions?), and we'll send out some notes from the CaFTR meeting soon; but I also just wanted to let you all know that the conference marked the end of my tenure as chair of the CaFTR special interest group.

It has been a real pleasure and I will continue to be on the steering group, and posting to the e-forum - but as of midnight yesterday, I'm delighted to introduce you to our new Chair and Deputy Chair of CaFTR - Geoff Goodman (from the US) and Katharina Weitkamp (from Germany). I'm sure they will be sharing with you their ideas and plans for taking the interest group forward (including a possible tweak to the name of our group that was discussed at the conference...), and I'm excited to see the directions it will take.

Best wishes,

Nick
