SEA Conference 2025
“Right here, right now.” The Existentialist’s Role Today.
We will be bringing you a day of presentations, workshops and dialogue based around the
theme of “Right here, right now”. The Existentialist’s Role Today.
Kim Loliya will be delivering the keynote titled ‘Therapy for the Revolution: Lessons from the
Front Line’ inviting us to reimagine our practice in an effort to reduce systemic harm and build
solidarity.
We will have multiple tracks of presentations and workshops from new and established
speakers, including:
● All those Useless Passions: On Sartre, Existential Therapy, Spirituality, and the Present
● Songs of Our Childhoods: Inviting our young selves to help us survive the accelerated
now
● Quantum Information and Free Will
● PlayFight: An existential movement workshop
● Gelassenheit for Healing: Freedom-for Gathering and Letting-Be
● Meaning and Nothingness: An Existential Therapist's Poetic Reflections
● Psychophobia: How does it come into our practice and might we reduce its impact?
● The Psychosis of Existential Training: Towards an Exclusive and Equitable Therapeutic
Practice for Young Therapists
● What can existential therapy offer in the face of climate breakdown?
● Friedrich Nietzsche, African-American Folklore, and The Roles of Memory in Submission
and Freedom
The afternoon of the Conference will include a dialogical session facilitated by the incoming
SEA Chair, Matthew Henson, where together we will explore being on the periphery (in our
philosophy and our practice) and still staying connected to the existential challenges occupying
individuals and the world right now.
Space is limited. Book early to avoid disappointment.
