ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the facilitation of reflexive sessions. It explores different ways of facilitating reflexive sessions, and provides examples from work to illustrate points. The chapter focuses on to what may be said during the sessions and in what ways these sessions are – or can be – unique. It offers some reflections on what it means to enact researcher reflexivity. The chapter provides a frame the session as a participatory-reflexive exercise to be primarily led by participants and facilitated by researcher. A flexible approach to reflexive session arrangements can also be helpful in clinic environments where staff is never sure when patients might arrive. The chapter explains the video-reflexive ethnography methodology was extended by providing opportunities for clinicians to watch the footage of patients’ analyses of their own care, alongside the footage of clinical interactions with patients in group reflexive sessions, thus shrinking the patient/clinician feedback loop.
