Drawing on the author's Mental Health Trust experience, this paper explores and celebrates the diversity of multi‐disciplinary, multi‐model approaches within a National Health Service context and the challenges systemic practitioners encounter in fitting what they have to offer into these complex professional systems. It suggests that we can best meet these challenges both by looking for underlying similarities between approaches and finding ways to accommodate and celebrate the differences.
