Aspens Resources

Picture
Aspens is a nickname for the network: AFT Family and Systemic Psychotherapies in Non-Statutory Sectors (AFSPinNSS). Here are all the Aspens' internet resources.  

Aspens main network is the Aspens Google Group email list. To join that click here to send an empty email to: [email protected]  At the bottom of all Aspens GGroup emails is a link to this page here. Below are lots more internet resources for you. Click on the thing you want to open up or download. Click on the images once to make them bigger, or 'right click' to go to the actual thing. ... And do remember to find Aspens in Context magazine too!  Feedback using the Contact form.


The Aspens Flier
https://www.dropbox.com/s/3tavo8r5uyhxw40/AspensFlier.pdf
  • Print this on both sides of A4, cut it in two, and you can make it into two 2-sided fliers "2 for the price of 1"
  • The proforma information (not shown here) does not go to any database - it's just to build up an informal picture of Aspens folk.

Aspens Information Poster
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7lduohx7cmkzp6q/AspensInfoPoster.docx
  • This is a Word document in big print. 
  • Put the 3 pages together on the wall. 
  • It shows the same Aspens things as on this page.

    Aspens on the AFT Website 
(NB You may have to register and sign in as an AFT member to access everything):

AFT Website homepage
http://www.aft.org.uk

AFT's Aspens page 
It's hard to find from the Menu ... Members > Committees > PAC ... So just put "Aspens" in the search box
http://www.aft.org.uk/members/view/aspens-group.html

AFT's Working in NS Sector page 
The Menu route is: Members > Employment support > to this:
http://www.aft.org.uk/members/view/working-in-the-non-statutory-sector.html

AFT Information for Starting Up in Private Practice 
On the AFT website, click the link from that last page to this: 
http://tinyurl.com/AFTIndPracInfo (which is short for a much much longer URL!)

      Aspens Clubhouse on Facebook

Join Facebook
https://www.facebook.com/ 
  • Fill in the boxes and click "Sign Up"
  • Avoid making everyone in the world your friend.
  • You can now see the Aspens Clubhouse door here:
  • Go to: www.facebook.com/groups/Aspens
  • Click on "Join Group" and a member will ok that
  • Fill your own home page up to end up like this >>
  • Masses of things on one page to click to or skim past
  • It's easier, safer, more personal and comfortable here
  • Aspens Clubhouse will appear in your left hand column
  • When you want to visit, click on that to go right into it

Aspens Clubhouse
https://www.facebook.com/groups/Aspens/ 
  • It's a Closed group - you have to be a member to get in
  • So it is much safer to chat here than by emails etc
  • UNTIL you are signed in to Facebook, AND
  • A member of the Clubhouse, you won't get in. 

Aspens Clubhouse Library
https://www.facebook.com/groups/Aspens/files/
  • At the top, click 'Files' to get into our 'Library'
  • These are documents anyone can create or add to
  • Just now they are Nick's edit of GGroup discussions
  • There are lots of useful topics here. Add your own!

     Google and Aspens GGroup 
https://accounts.google.com/SignUp 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/afspinnss

  • You can be in a GG and get emails
  • But that does not allow you to see the archives and loads of other options online
  • To do that, create an account with Google
  • Fill in the boxes and click Next Step etc
  • Then and if you are Signed in to Google
  • The link to Aspens GGroup page will work
  • Google doesn't know it's you until you Sign in.

          Skype
  • Another internet resource that Aspens relies on is Skype. 
  • Teleconferencing meetings take a bit of setting up. But one to one Video Skype is a joyous doddle to talk to Aspens friends anywhere in the UK. 
  • One to one Video Skype is free, problem-free, and very easy to do.  
  • Download Skype to your computer. >>>>
  • Open up to fill in the boxes and create your Skype account and name.
  • The only hurdle left is to get someone to chat to. Ask on the GGroup or on Facebook. Systemic FTists are reliably nice, helpful, responsive, generous, sensible and compatible.
  • There are detailed guidelines in the Aspens Clubhouse Library for teleconferencing with Skype.
