The
recent College of Psychoanalysts Conference on State Regulation generated an
after-reaction in ipnosis that lasted several days. |

|
eIpnosis
editorial |
Speaking the Unspeakable
#2 '...Now and again I try
to remind myself why I am convinced that state regulation of psychopractice
is problematic and harmful to both client and practitioner interests. |
Hidden
behind the benign protective promises of psychopractice regulation and the
reasonable voices patiently lining you up for it, is a death threat. In a
vain attempt to guarantee client safety, it will kill, in the sense of
'uprooting those plants considered to be weeds', as a onetime Chair of UKCP
described it, is intended to kill, wildness, the esoteric, the exotic, and
the unpredictable, that are involved in the unavoidably haphazard tasks of
helping people find their way out of corners into which they may have become
painted.' |

editorial |
The Regulation Journey -
From Taxonomy to Taxidermy AUGUST 13 2006 |
'As was promised at the end of 2005, the accumulated knowhow of psychopractice is to be subject to a formidable array of technical experts whose declared field is taxonomy, i.e. to treat the subtle, often ineffable skills of human interaction, as though they were trays of butterflies to be catalogued.' |

PsycholOdeon comment, irony, humour and the occasional rant |
The
Huge Mistake of state regulation of the psychological therapies is
increasingly engaging the attention of the ethically challenged accrediting
bodies. As a prompt for their lack of ethical awareness, eIpnosis adds to the
debate about SR, One video by eIpnosis on research validity, and eight videos
from two new eIpnosis voices; Guy Gladstone of the Open Centre, a
psychotherapist and group conductor with 24 years experience, and Janet Low,
a psychoanalyst. |

REGISTERING HUMAN NATURE |
This
short article accompanied a comprehensive review of the Psychotherapy Bill
1999 published in Self and Society January 2000 'Weary
of the task of confronting the professionalisation of psycho-practice, I
often remind myself that vigilance about how, and by whom, human nature is
being defined, is always honourable and necessary.' |

The Alchemist's
Nightmare: Gold into Lead - the
annexation of psychotherapy in the UK |
‘…
the debate about professionalisation of psychotherapy in the UK has seemed
one-sided and unsound and the institutional outcomes oppressive and damaging.
Is the attempted professionalisation of psychotherapy in the UK a rational,
aware process - one that supports the needs of clients? Or is it an incoming
tide of collective collusion in which a trade association consisting
primarily of training schools and accrediting bodies seeks to colonise and dominate the field of psycho-practice?’ |
