Psihoterapija, filozofija i "lična priča"

Abstract

The paper discusses the most recent developments in the psychotherapeutic methodology in the way of merging with the practical applications of philosophy in counseling. The author argues in favor of the upcoming ‘return’ to Lacanian psychoanalysis as the foundation of psychiatry and illustrates what this return of both psychiatry and psychotherapy to philosophically informed psychoanalysis involves, e.g. with regard to the understanding of psychoses (schizophrenia) and personality disorder (‘borderline personality disorder’). The paper concludes that the contemporary methodological synergy between psychotherapy and the philosophical contextual interpretation techniques is not a ‘revolution’ in psychotherapy, but rather the outcome of a natural development process for psychotherapy.
