Ep 50: Richard House - Fearless Speech, Responsibility, Freedom & The Possibility of Being Wrong
Fearless Speech, Responsibility, Freedom & The Possibility of Being Wrong
Dr Richard House Ph.D. is a Chartered Psychologist and a retired senior university lecturer in Education Studies [Early Childhood] and Psychology and Psychotherapy. He is currently Editor of Self & Society: International Journal for Humanistic, Existential and Transpersonal Psychology, and a founder-member of the Independent Practitioners Network and the Alliance for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
A trained Steiner Kindergarten and class teacher and an education campaigner since the late 1990s, his books on education include Too Much, Too Soon? – Early Learning and the Erosion of Childhood; Childhood, Well-being and a Therapeutic Ethos (co-ed. Del Loewenthal); and Pushing Back to OFSTED. His books on psychotherapy include In, Against and Beyond Therapy, Therapy Beyond Modernity, Critically Engaging CBT and Against and For CBT (both of the latter co-edited with Del Loewenthal).
Richard was a founder-member of the ‘Open EYE’ Campaign, Early Childhood Action, and the Save Childhood Movement. He contributed regularly to a range of professional education publications, and to the peer-reviewed and professional psychotherapy literature.
More recently he has been writing critical press and magazine articles on the covid ‘pandemic’ and mass vaccination. Richard organised the three Daily Telegraph Open Letters on the state of modern childhood in 2006, 2007 (both with Sue Palmer) and in 2011.
Particular current interests include: the capture of modern culture by biomedicine; the ‘audit culture’ and ‘toxic childhood’; the scientificity of mass vaccination; the authoritarian nature of modern science and technological transhumanism; and the psychodynamics of learning, teaching, play and pedagogy. His latest book (written with Thomas Hardtmuth MD), Beyond Mainstream Medicine: Dialogue towards a New Paradigm for Health, will be published in August.
I’ve known Richard for some time in the Humanistic Psychology world. I am deeply inspired by his commitment to ‘doing the right thing’, acting on what matters most for the good of all. All with a humungous intelligence and untiring energy for inquiry, exploration, creation and articulation of his profound insights into the nature of human life. He’s also a lovely man full of generosity and wit!
