Co-mediation - Using a psychological paired approach to resolving conflict.
Editor: Monica Hanaway.
Contributing authors: Monica Hanaway, Tricia Hayes, Diana Mitchell, Judith McKimm-Vorderwinker, Phil O'Hehir, Mary Lou Kennedy, Paul Randolph, Jamie Reed.
At this time of increased interest in resolving conflict through mediation, this book offers a timely exploration of how using a co-mediation model brings a unique and valuable element to the mediation process. The work draws on the thoughts and experience of a number of experts in the field. They have been brought together by Monica Hanaway, who runs her own mediation company, Corporate Harmony, which offers mediations, training and conflict coaching.
Students on mediation courses often hear of co-mediation but rarely have the opportunity to understand how it works and what the benefits may be. This book aims to address this for them but will also be of interest to all mediators and those with an interest in conflict resolution.
The book will be published early 2012 at the price of £12.99. Pre orders before the 31.12.11 will be at the discounted rate of £10.99, orders after that date will cost £12.99. To order please download the order form via www.monicahanaway.com and return with a cheque for the correct amount to:

The Existential Academy
The Existential Academy is a place for study, training and education in relation to human existence. It is based on existential philosophy and aims to make this resource available in a practical way to enable people to live better lives.
The Existential Academy offers training in existential coaching as well as public lectures on human issues. It also offers short courses and workshops on specific concerns, such as understanding human emotions, relationships and the meaning of life.
The Existential Academy aims to provide a platform for self-reflection and reflection about the way in which we live our lives. It is committed to openness and encourages free, critical and radical thinking, exploring ancient human concerns. Our objective is to help people explore better ways of living and gain greater understanding of themselves in relation to their world.
The Directors of the Existential Academy are Emmy van Deurzen and Digby Tantam, both professors of psychotherapy and international authorities in their fields. They have published several dozen books between them and have a long-standing reputation for excellence in offering training in psychotherapy and counselling.
About the Academy
The existential academy is a part of the septimus group of companies, owned by Professors Emmy van Deurzen and Digby Tantam and set up to provide a range of psychological, psychotherapeutic and counselling services to the professions and to the public.
The existential academy sponsors public lectures as well as providing training in coaching.
About our training in existential coaching
Existential Coaching is a philosophical method of coaching that enables people to get clarity about their lives and make decisions about the practical ways in which they may want to change their actions, beliefs and values.
Underlying approach to the course
The philosophy of this course is existential, which means that the focus of students’ practical work will be on understanding the human predicaments of their clients in a philosophical way. It draws on the work of existential and phenomenological thinkers and, whilst in some ways related to philosophical consultancy, it is a separate and rapidly developing profession in its own right. Coaching is used in many different settings and organisations and is a direct and constructively practical method of enabling people to think clearly about their lives. It is clearly distinct from the professions of counselling and psychotherapy, which usually have a more curative, caring and therapeutic brief.
Quality assurance
Coaching is regulated by its own professional bodies and the Course leader is a founding member of the Coaching
Psychology Section of the British Psychological Society. We aim to prepare students and trainees to become well
rounded professional coaches, capable of working within diverse settings and able to critically evaluate their own work. With so few reputable coaching courses currently available, we hope that our graduates will become leaders in their field.
What our learners can expect
Essays and research for the diploma will include a discursive, philosophical element and the research will usually be based on phenomenological enquiry. In order to encourage the integration of a variety of coaching methods, staff will be drawn from many different settings and backgrounds. The course will include elements of psychoanalytic and psychodynamic training as well as of cognitive-behavioural training, cumulating in the study of integrative aspects of coaching interventions that fit best with an existential approach.
