Mutual Respect Network Seminar
What is Critical Psychotherapy? The social turn and identity in the consulting room.
Online
Wednesday 21st January 6:30 – 8pm (UK Time)
Presenter: Helen Rowlands
TSTA(P)
The social turn refers to a broad movement within counselling and psychotherapy that understands the sociological and the psychological as being inextricably linked, each shaping the other. Significantly, It understand social, political, and cultural contexts as being the bedrock from which the psychological evolves, rather than being an external force which arrives developmentally later to impact the subjective sense of self. This is a radical way to think about the shaping and development of the self, and is leading to important challenges to the traditional practice of psychotherapy under the umbrella term of Critical Psychotherapy.
This seminar will explore the history of these ideas, explore some theories about identity from the field of Cultural Studies, and open up questions about what this means for contemporary practice. The hope is that there will have a lively and collaborative discussion about the future of psychotherapy.
