work democracy The functioning of natural and intrinsic rational work relationships among human beings. The concept of work democracy represents the established reality (not the ideology) of these relationships, which, though usually distorted because of prevailing armoring and irrational political ideologies, are nevertheless at the basis of social achievement.

Science is known whereas cult is hidden.
Anyone telling you what to believe is cult.
Anyone offering means to discern knowledge,
immanent criticism and details of experimental protocols,
your own view through a lens that you understand and control,
is scientist.

Training & Education Overview

Training and public education have been vital core functions of the ACO since its inception in 1968. We currently have training programs in medical orgonomy and social orgonomy and a variety of public education programs.

The ACO is the only organization in the world that has an active comprehensive, in-depth Medical Orgonomy Training Program.
For over 40 years we have been training physicians in orgone therapy in its basic form as developed by Dr. Wilhelm Reich.

Our “Advanced Technical Seminar” is, in fact, historically a direct continuation of the “technical seminar” of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society run by Wilhelm Reich starting in 1924 in which he developed character analysis.

In 2001 we instituted the Social Orgonomy Training Program to offer training in the application of orgonomic principles within the social realm to clinically oriented practitioners in fields such as psychology, social work, nursing, marital and family therapy, or organizational development, as well as to others who are not engaged in providing therapy but may apply the knowledge of social orgonomy in a wide range of fields such as those who work as teachers, administrators, politicians, writers, businesspeople, attorneys, managers, etc.

The cornerstone requirement of all of our training is that the trainees need to be in personal training therapy. We believe that it is not possible as a medical orgonomist to help someone with their emotions unless the therapist has overcome problems he or she has that would interfere with tolerating the emotions that come up in the patient in a therapy session. Likewise anyone working with relationships in the social realm must have addressed problems in making contact in order to help others improve their capacity for contact.


social orgonomy presentation series on a wide variety of subjects ranging from the bioenergetic principles of love, family, and work relationships to various aspects of human destructiveness and the emotional plague, as well as from communication confusion in our electronic age to the impact of mother-infant bonding and our ability to love. We also offer Laboratory Workshops in Orgonomic Science open to the public.

The American College of Orgonomy offers training in medical orgonomy to qualified physicians in the fundamentals of orgonomic medical science, clinical assessment of character structure, character analysis and psychiatric orgone therapy. Training consists of personal characteranalytic and biophysical restructuring, didactic and clinical seminars, and clinical supervision and laboratory work in orgone biophysics. Periodic examinations are given to evaluate the participant’s progress.

ACO Training Program
Admission and Participation Requirements

A. General Statement
In addition to using all the resources available to the traditional psychiatrist, the medical orgonomist employs highly effective therapeutic interventions that are based on a clinically grounded understanding of character and muscular armor, the psychosomatic relationship and the relationship between patient and therapist. The therapist’s capacity for deep energetic and emotional contact with the patient is essential for successful treatment. Chronic armor impedes this capacity. Therefore, the primary requirement of orgonomic training is suitability and readiness. In other words, because the therapist’s perceptions, sensations and capacity for contact are his most essential tools, restructuring is the cornerstone of the training. The decisions for acceptance as well as advancement in the program are determined by the individual’s structure. For this reason the duration of training is indeterminate.

B. Prerequisites for Admission
1. The recommendations of an approved treating or training therapist.
2. Graduation from an approved medical school with a degree of M.D. or D.O.
3. Participation in or completion of an approved specialty training program.
4. Satisfactory interview and approval of the A.C.O. Training Committee.

C. Specific Requirements for Admission and Ongoing Participation in the A.C.O. Training Program
1. Continuation in or completion of personal therapy with the ongoing approval of the training therapist.
2. Ongoing supervision by an approved supervisor.
3. Attendance of the clinical seminars and presentation of cases as scheduled. Written reports and case presentation will be considered for publication.

Until the Training Committee determines that he is ready to practice independently, the orgonomist-in-training must maintain active status in the program. After this point, he may choose to attend seminars for continuing education.

Note: from time to time, nonmedical professionals are admitted to individual courses offered by the American College of Orgonomy. Acceptance into the training program, however, requires graduation from an approved medical school as well as other requirements described above.

Certification of Training
The American Board of Medical Orgonomy is an authoritative and responsible body of physicians whose primary function is to set standards and test the qualifications of physicians for the practice of orgonomic psychiatry and medicine.

Board certification in medical Orgonomy requires that Board-eligible candidates must have graduated from an approved, accredited medical school, completed postgraduate training and passed board examinations in an approved specialty with at least one year of residency training in psychiatry, undergone characterological restructuring by a qualified medical orgonomist, received at least three years of didactic, clinical, and laboratory instruction by qualified instructors in orgonomic medicine, and be in good standing as described in section 3. The candidate must then pass written and oral examinations in orgonomic theory and practice.
