01
After the Fifty-Minute Hour
A keynote built from the book of the same name. On what it means to protect the hour of clinical attention, and why the profession continues to fail to do so.
Keynote & speaking · est. 2018
Keynote talks on clinical practice, professional formation, and the ethics of care.
I speak at professional conferences, university programmes and clinical-leadership events across the UK and EU. Three signature talks; a short list of upcoming dates; booking via the form at the bottom of the page.
Twenty-two years in clinical practice. Sixteen years teaching. Eight years speaking.
Signature talks
Three signature talks.
Each talk is 45–60 minutes plus Q&A; travel-ready; can be adapted to the specifics of your delegates on request.
02
Teaching as a spiritual exercise
On clinical supervision as a vocation in its own right, and the particular discipline of preparing the next generation of a profession.
03
Practice after personal loss
A harder talk, delivered by request only — on returning to the consulting room after a significant personal bereavement, and what the profession owes its practitioners in that process.
The book
After the Fifty-Minute Hour.
Eighteen essays on clinical practice, chosen from a hundred written over two decades and arranged chronologically to make something like a memoir by accident. The talks draw from this material directly; delegates attending keynotes receive a signed hardback on request.
Fraser Press · September 2026 · 288 pp. · £22 hardback · pre-order via bookshop.org, Waterstones, or an indie of your choice.
