The expert trainer will set out clearly the legal responsibilities of all relevant parties and explore the practical application of these responsibilities with the course participants. The course will then examine the issues associated with the planning of work to be contracted out and the evaluation, selection, control and monitoring of contractors engaged to undertake the work.

"What does it mean to heal, properly speaking, in the context of an existential approach". With Dr. Michael Guy Thompson We aim to explore the lived experiences on irregular perceptions of reality with an open mind. Each Saturday includes: a live dialogue between Prof. Ernesto Spinelli and an International Existential Therapist; a moment to share your thoughts and feelings with the teachers; and a final integration facilitated by Bárbara Godoy. This series of ten dialogues set out to explore the multifaceted dimentions and complexities associated with Existential Therapies. It attempts to engage with various interpretations of insanity through the lens of patients often painful, confounding, and deeply unsettling life experiences. Healing - between Prof. Ernesto Spinelli and Dr. Michael Guy Thompson “What does it mean to heal, properly speaking, in the context of an existential approach to psychotherapy and psychoanalysis? How can we take a term that we ordinarily associate with the object of medical treatment and apply it to conversations that are conducted between therapists and their patients with the aim to live a happier and healthy life? In this dialogue I want to explore the concept of healing by exploring the etymology of the word, “heal,” which is cognate with such terms as sane, sound, sanitary, cure, and whole, in order to offer a non-medicalized and diagnostically-laden notion of how an existential approach to psychotherapy may further a healthy way to live. To this end, I want to explore the relationship between health, healing, and sanity – all derived from the same etymological root – and how psychotherapy is not concerned with “treating illnesses,” but with furthering authenticity in our lives. I will argue that living a sane life assumes a life that is lived passionately, honestly, and authentically.” Dr. Michael Guy Thompson. Dr. Michael Guy Thompson, PhD, received his psychoanalytic training from R. D. Laing and associates at the Philadelphia Association in London, and served as the organization’s administrator from 1973–1980. He is Personal and Supervising Analyst and Faculty Member, Psychoanalytic Institute of Northern California, San Francisco, and former Adjunct Professor at the California School of Professional Psychology, San Francisco, and the California Institute of Integral Studies, San Francisco. He is the author of over 100 journal articles, book chapters, and reviews, as well as numerous books, including The Death of Desire: A Study in Psychopathology (1985), The Truth About Freud’s Technique (1994), The Ethic of Honesty (2004), The Legacy of R. D. Laing: An Appraisal of His Contemporary Relevance (Ed., 2015), The Death of Desire: An Existential Study in Sanity and Madness (2017, 2nd edition), an extensively revised and expanded edition of the original, and most recently, Essays in Existential Psychoanalysis: On the Primacy of Authenticity (2024), also published by Routledge. Most recently, Dr. Thompson is founder and director of New School for Existential Psychoanalysis, a certificate-based virtual training program modeled on his work with R. D. Laing in London, based in San Francisco. He founded Free Association, Inc. in 1988 in San Francisco to further the legacy of R. D. Laing, and inaugurated the annual R. D. LAING IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY symposium at Esalen Institute in 2015, to further the legacy and relevance of Laing’s contribution to contemporary psychiatry and psychotherapy. He lives in Berkeley, California. www.mguythompson.com Prof. Ernesto Spinelli was Chair of the Society for Existential Analysis between 1993 and 1999 and is a Life Member of the Society. His writings, lectures and seminars focus on the application of existential phenomenology to the arenas of therapy, supervision, psychology, and executive coaching. He is a Fellow of the British Psychological Society (BPS) as well as an APECS accredited executive coach and coaching supervisor. In 2000, he was the Recipient of BPS Division of Counselling Psychology Award for Outstanding Contribution to the Profession. And in 2019, Ernesto received the BPS Award for Distinguished Contribution to Practice. His most recent book, Practising Existential Therapy: The Relational World 2nd edition (Sage, 2015) has been widely praised as a major contribution to the advancement of existential theory and practice. Living up to the existential dictum that life is absurd, Ernesto is also the author of an on-going series of Private Eye novels.

Medicine Journey: Healing in Community Healing is not a solo journey - all of us require connection, support and accountability to keep us moving in the right direction. Ceremonies open deep doors, but without the right preparation and integration, those openings can feel overwhelming, incomplete and at worst, harmful. This framework is designed to teach and empower you to harness the power of community as an essential vessel for your ongoing healing and growth. What Makes This Different: Harness the Power of Community: By preparing and integrating as part of a small group, you’ll discover how connection and mutual support amplify the transformative potential of your journey. Empower Yourself: By becoming your own healer. We will give you the tools, insights, and confidence to navigate your healing path long after the ceremony itself. Be Part of a Framework for Growth: You’ll join a micro-community that extends beyond the ceremony, offering support, accountability, and resources to keep you grounded, inspired and moving forward. What’s Included: Pre-Ceremony Preparation: Participate in a group call to set intentions, open up, and connect with your fellow participants. Learn how to prepare to get the most out of your medicine journey. Receive a comprehensive guide on how to prepare. 1-1 Consultation: A private consultation with Diego to discuss and decide on the right dose for your journey. You will receive a link to book this call upon booking. The Ceremony: Step into a safe, sacred space for healing in a small group ceremony, where you’ll be supported yet empowered to work by taking your intention directly to the medicine. Integration and Ongoing Support: After the ceremony, you’ll receive a comprehensive guide, join a follow-up call, and continue to thrive as part of a micro-community hub designed to keep you on track. This is a chance to experience a framework of support that can transform one journey into long-lasting growth.

Medicine Journey: Women's Ceremony There is something powerful that happens when women gather together to heal. We live in a world that constantly asks us to speed up, toughen up, and disconnect from ourselves and from each other. This ceremony is a chance to slow down and come back to who you were before a lifetime of conditioning. Through a guided inner journey with the medicine, you’ll reconnect with your body’s wisdom, your own rhythm, and the deeper truth that’s been there all along. What Makes This Different: Harness the Power of the Feminine: By journeying as part of a small group, you’ll discover how connection and mutual support amplify the transformative potential of your journey. This ceremony is designed for women, by a woman. The space holds what we’re often not given room for in daily life: emotional truth, embodied wisdom, and the depth that comes from being fully met. Empower Yourself: By becoming your own healer. We will give you the tools, insights, and confidence to navigate your healing path long after the ceremony itself. Be Part of a Framework for Growth: You’ll connect with other women from the community and find support that extends beyond the ceremony, offering support, accountability, and resources to keep you grounded, inspired and moving forward. What’s Included: Pre-Ceremony Guidance You’ll receive a clear, practical guide to help you prepare physically, emotionally, and mentally. From setting your intention to creating the right environment around you, we'll help you arrive feeling ready. Personalised Dose Consultation Before the ceremony, Melissa will speak with you to determine the right dose for your body and where you are in your journey. The Ceremony This is a quiet, powerful space where you can focus on your intention and go inwards. Melissa will guide the day with care and clarity, creating the conditions for you to meet yourself fully.
