Paul Gordon

I was born in Glasgow but live in London. Have been a Serge admirer for 40
years - worked for many years as researcher/campaigner in civil liberties
and anti-racism before becoming a psychotherapist which I've now been doing
for 20 years. I'm involved in the Philadelphia Association set up by RD
Laing and others in the 1960s to challenge accepted ways of understanding
and responding to mental suffering. I run one of the therapeutic community
households run by the PA as well having a private practice. I'm the author
of Face to Face: therapy as ethics (1999), The Hope of Therapy (2009) and An
Uneasy Dwelling, the story of he PA houses (2010).

I'm particularly interested in exploring the parallels between therapy and the creative arts.
