Sarah Sutton

work face1Dr Sarah Sutton co-founded the learning studio with Andrew Harrison as a response to the need for creative ways of working that take into account complexity and dilemmas beneath the surface of organisational life. She has been involved in service re-development and local regeneration at strategic level for many years, providing supervision, strategic advice and support to evaluators and facilitators of a number of regional partnership programmes.

She is a Tavistock-trained psychotherapist and a member of ISPSO. She leads Tavistock MA programme seminars on psychoanalytic theory and development research. She is an experienced group facilitator and is interested in how reflective groups can metabolize emotions arising from work in disturbing social contexts and so offer new relational possibilities. She and Andrew Harrison are both practising artists, and bring to partnerships all the provisionality and opportunities to experiment and explore that are enjoyed in an art or music studio. Her interests and professional experience bring a specialist perspective to the relational construction of meaning and the interplay between internal and external world dynamics.

She is the author of Psychoanalysis, Neuroscience and the Stories of Our Lives (Routledge, 2019 in press), Being Taken In: The Framing Relationship (Karnac, 2014) and the chapter, What you see is what you get: observation as opposed to inspection as a means of organizational change in Psychoanalysis and Other Matters: Where are we now? (Routledge, 2019).
