Tolerating Uncertainty: New Possibilities of Open Dialogue in Primary Care Practice / 日本プライマリ・ケア連合学会誌

ABSTRACT

Open Dialogue is a dialogical approach aiming at "polyphony (multivoicedness) " based on seven principles such as "social network perspective" and "tolerance of uncertainty". This method began as an approach to treat mental illness in Finland, and has great potential in the primary care field. In particular, it may be effective for highly complex and/or uncertain cases.
