Cassandra Geisel (she/her) @cassandrageisel.bsky.social · 22/10/2025@emmyvandeurzen.bsky.social speaking at Kingsley Hall, location of one of R.D. Laing’s most remembered experiment. Thank you Compassionate Mental Health for organising such a great day reflecting on the impact of therapeutic communities and alternatives for people with lived experience of psychosis. 121
Cassandra Geisel (she/her) @cassandrageisel.bsky.social · 07/04/2025With more than 3000 deaths at the hands of police over the past 50 years, there have only been 4 successful prosecutions that led to police officers being convicted and sent to prison. The disproportionate number of Black people killed represents the depth of racism ingrained in UK police forces. 000
Cassandra Geisel (she/her) @cassandrageisel.bsky.social · 07/04/2025Attended The People’s Tribunal on police killings this weekend. This was led by families of those killed by police who shared their story with an international panel to examine the evidence. In 6/7 of the cases I heard, it was a mental health call that ended up killing the person needing support. 000

Cassandra Geisel (she/her) @cassandrageisel.bsky.social · 19/11/2024Have been reflecting on not being able to guarantee a safe space for people. This has been supported by Myira Khan’s work and thoughts on the matter. Today at my placement, I came across this and I really liked it. Any thoughts? Brave spaces instead of safe spaces? 231
