SUMMARY:Therapists Cafe on Otherness\, Sameness and Power Inside and Outside
DESCRIPTION:Therapists Cafe on Otherness\, Sameness and Power Inside and Outside – in person event\, London\, Bond Street\nBooking (closes 24 hours before the event): https://events.humanitix.com/edi-cafe-therapists-cafe-on-otherness-sameness-and-power-in-society \nCo-facilitated by Leon Berry https://www.asafeplace2talk.co.uk/about-me/ \nFor all therapists passionate about EDI and TADF (https://www.tadf.co.uk) developments\, this is an opportunity to meet\, network\, and try the ‘Cafe Model’ of community development within this framework. The event gives 1.5 hours of CPD – the Cafe model is a pedagogical concept developed by Death Cafe (deathcafe.com) facilitating communities of likeminded people to practice focused listening and empathic resonance with each other. \nThis Café is for all colleagues across disciplines who are working on themselves and their practice to push the envelope for our profession to become as conscious as possible about all aspects of power-processes and how they are expressed intra- and inter-psychically\, as well as societally\, and to help facilitate holistic change towards equality and equity in society. \nPsychoanalytic thought is welcome\, as we want to include the ‘unconscious’ in our thinking (and action) – e.g. the intersection of formative object relations and cultural process\, like splitting\, projection and oedipal competition across the fault-lines of structural oppression. \nThought from all other therapeutic disciplines\, such as humanistic\, existential\, or integrative is equally welcome as we want to explore thoughts about difference and sameness across disciplines and identities. \nThis Cafe is about networking and inspiring each other\, as well as sharing projects we are currently working on. \nAttendance at the Cafe requires agreement to Therapists Cafe’s EDI policy: https://therapists.cafe/edi-policy-2/ \nNB: this event is a Cafe/Salon event\, NOT therapy. While great care is taken to provide a safe\, empathic space\, participants are required to manage their own emotional process. \nBy completing your booking\, you agree to our Terms & Conditions. https://therapists.cafe/terms-conditions/ \n

SUMMARY:Psychoanalysis Cafe - Therapists Cafe for Psychodynamic/-analytic Orientations
DESCRIPTION:Psychoanalysis Cafe – Therapists Cafe for Psychodynamic/-analytic orientations – in Person\, Bond St \nBooking (closes 24 hours before Event start): https://events.humanitix.com/psychoanalysis-cafe-november-2026-therapists-cafe-for-psychodynamic-analytic-orientations \nThis is an in-person meeting for therapists of psychodynamic/-analytic orientations to come together\, talk about what moves us personally and professionally\, support and encourage each other\, and network/collaborate over coffee and cake. The event is also open to colleagues interested in analytic/-dynamic approaches but not exclusively trained – but it would then be good if you have some experience with psychodynamic/-analytic therapy yourself. This is to ensure that we share a common frame of reference to create a community experience of being seen and understood. \nThere will be an hour of a closed ‘sharing round’ followed by informal networking. In this round\, everyone has time to speak about what currently moves them\, but you are free to share as much or as little as you like. \nThis event is for registered therapists only – trainees welcome but details of training need to be provided. This is a non-profit initiative – ticket price covers room rent and snacks. \nThe event will gain 1.5 hours of CPD – please see ‘How the Cafes work’ on our website. \nThe cakes at our events are from the Luminary Bakery – https://www.luminarybakery.com a social enterprise helping women who have experienced trauma and violence to re-enter employment. We have chosen them as a great example of how Psychologically Informed Environments (PIEs) and Trauma Informed Care can be used in a business context to empower people and benefit society. \nBy completing your booking\, you agree to our Terms & Conditions. https://therapists.cafe/terms-conditions/

SUMMARY:Therapists (Screen) Writing Group
DESCRIPTION:Therapists (Screen) Writing Group\nBooking: https://events.humanitix.com/therapists-screen-writing-group-november-2026 \nThis is a group we are developing for therapists interested in developing skills in screen writing\, or other creative writing such as novels. \nIt emerged from the recognition that many of us are interested in creative stories and how they are told\, and events for discussing and analysing films or other creative works are passionately attended by therapists. For example\, the Psychoanalytic Film Festival organised by the Institute of Psychoanalysis https://psychoanalysis.org.uk/civicrm-event/1962 the Film Club at 10 Windsor Walk https://www.10windsorwalk.org.uk/events/ \nor the British Psychoanalytic Association’s (BPA) Film Screenings with Discussion: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/britishpsychoanalyticassociation/2465263 \nor the Facebook group Psychoanalysis Goes to the Movies https://www.facebook.com/groups/1544839415632398/ \nThis group is facilitated by a psychodynamic colleague with a background in film studies and supported by Dr Nicola Diamond who taught Film Psychoanalysis and Culture at the Tavistock Clinic for many years https://www.drnicoladiamond.com/about/psychoanalytic-psychotherapist-nicola-diamond as well as Stephen Gyllenhaal\, Hollywood film producer and trauma therapist\, who wants to support the mission of encouraging therapists to write meaningful scripts. \nThe group designed to provide a fun and light-hearted intro to creative screen writing by means of developing one’s own ‘movie character’ and have them engage in collectively constructed plot-lines. The group is suitable for beginners but also for colleagues already experienced and perhaps even published or credited with previous work. We will periodically invite experts from the film world to provide guidance. \nWe are also developing the group so it can also serve as a ‘sounding board’ for colleagues who want help with developing a particular piece of writing. \nPlease do not feel any pressure – the group is designed as a stimulating and relaxing Friday evening activity\, not another course with a to-do list. \n£15 per event to contribute to room rent and snacks \n  \nThe Cake for the event is from the Luminary Bakery (www.luminarybakery.com) which is a social enterprise helping women who have experienced domestic violence and trauma return to the work market. It is a business with a therapeutic mission\, led with extraordinary care\, which serves as a good example of what a ‘Psychologically Informed Environment’ (PIE) can achieve if the philosophy is taken out of the consulting room. \n  \nCPD: 1.5 hours with certificate. In-person event.  \nThese groups are for therapists only. Therapeutic qualification and registration with a UK accrediting body (UKCP\, BACP\, HCPC\, BABCP\, analytic institutes etc) will need to be verified upon booking.
