Description

Description:

Like lock and key, illness and treatment are matching, symmetrical terms. Because the term "mental illness" is misleading, I prefer to avoid the term "psychotherapy," which refers (or ought to refer) to a particular kind(s) of dialogue, discourse, or situation of personal influence.

 

Educational Objectives:

  1. To understand the metaphoric character and strategic utility of the term "psychotherapy."
  2. To discuss why and how the medical model of psychotherapy is both the strength and weakness of this concept and know its correct uses
