I am really pleased, on behalf of the staff, members and trustees, to announce that we have successfully appointed Dr Rachel Watson to be the next Director of the Institute of Family Therapy. She will be taking up the position in September.

Rachel comes to us from a background in both health and social care, as well as teaching and publishing in different contexts. We are very much looking forward to working with her, and are confident that she brings a range of experience, knowledge and ideas that will support the Institute in both honouring it’s history alongside developing, with staff and trustees, the future direction of IFT.
