Emotions and Social Justice: Challenging the Boundaries between
Private and Public Life
Our inner lives respond dramatically to events
and processes in the public sphere, and the outer world of politics is
utterly irradiated with passion
and emotion. Andrew will show how new thinking about parenting, relationships,
sexuality, masculinity, aggression and spirituality contributes to a
revitalized political vocabulary. Some of the political themes that he
will discuss are war, the economy, the environment and leadership. At
the same time, he will take a critical attitude to many of the consensual
ideas of psychotherapy and counselling – including a searching
exploration of the notion of emotional intelligence itself. Then we can
discuss the question: 'What difference (if any) can psychotherapists
and counsellors make to today’s world?’

Keynote Speech – Peter Sharp
Emotional Literacy – The Big Picture:
Education, Schools, Multi-agency, Business and Organisations
The love affair with attainment and achievement
at any cost may be over, as educators, politicians and parent are remembering
that life is a marathon and not a 100m dash!
Together we need to find the levers that will
raise standards in a humane and sustainable way, and help young people
to develop into healthy and happy citizens who value learning and belong
to their communities.
Peter’s presentation will unpack the emotional
literacy agenda and encourage participants to consider this at four levels:
• Intra-personal: my emotional competencies
• Inter-personal: emotional literacy between me and others
• Organisational or systemic: the school, the office, home
• Societal: there really is such a thing as society
Together we are starting to make a difference,
and may even have some fun doing it!

Keynote Speech – Rosie Boycott
The Value of Therapy
Therapy is often undervalued in our society,
or seen as an indulgence by those with either the time or the money to
waste. Speaking from personal experience Rosie sets out her case for the
value of therapy in our increasingly fractured society.
