I was one of those students in that first class in London on Phenomenology as mentioned at the beginning of this interview. (As a 20 yr old psychology novice, I struggled with, yet was intrigued by Husserl as well). His class blew my mind and he remains- 30 years on- one of the most influential teachers in my life. Thank you Dr. Spinelli

To dismiss transference this way is to misunderstand it. Even in the most rigid of places (traditional psychoanalytic literature) not everything can be dismissed as transference and it's simply not an accurate description of transference to say "the client isn't really talking to me but to her mother". I would honestly expect a prominent figure such as Spinelli to have a more nuanced and accurate understanding of transference even (and especially) if he aims to reject it as a relevant concept.

This makes total sense to me. I don't feel that the 4 pillars of existentialism resonate with me, it's the concept of grappling with complex systems and what that tells me about myself, who I am, what I believe in and what the future holds for me.

Great interview, however, as a psychologist in a different psychological tradition, I have a question for you that I hope you can help me clarify. If the client is always right, what is the purpose of his attending therapy? If he is right, why doesn't feel that way and seeks help in a psychotherapeutic process? Thank you for your amazing work with these interviews, they have been a great help to my students.

My knee jerk: You point "the client is always right" at the choice of therapy , but "the client is always right" is meant to refer within the exchange. I'm just some guy btw haha Take care friend!

I think it is a question of perspective and awareness, the client is always right - but they may be limiting their experience, they may have become rigid in their thoughts and behaviour. They are right, at that moment and with the resources that they perceive are available at that moment, the therapist can help them put things in to perspective.

The more I learn about existential therapy, the more I see it to be the best way to proceed, for it addresses overarching paradigms and perennial problems that consistently plague people, whereas other forms attempt to treat the side effects of those paradigms.

An impressive contribution. An excellent, insight conversation. I was touched and moved by the example of the woman whose Mom had Alzheimer's and (in short) they both had a breakthrough in relatedness when the daughter gave up her attachment to getting credit for being the daughter and was open to "being with" her Mom. Then her Mom starts talking about her (the Mom's) daughter to the daughter [without realizing she was the daughter] and the daughter heard how important she was to her Mom and got the acknowledgement she so greatly cherished. The power of openness - being without history. Definitely.Find out how to get into such a space. Check it out!

15:51 And that is the fundamental problem with existential approaches. It really is a fundamental error. And quite probably, a defensive stance. And a straw man argument as no one is denying the reality of the here-and-now interaction COEXISTING with the transference.
