No. of bitstreams: 1 Patricia Gipsztejn Jacobsohn.pdf: 1052909 bytes, checksum: f0653b758f54649c69f5a61c419eea19 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-09-01 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo - FAPESP / This research aims at investigating aspects of the clinical practice of analysts who work with patients with anorexias and bulimias. It also aims at investigating the specificities and issues of particular relevance in the analyst's encounter with his/her patient; countertransference issues arising in the encounter of this analytical duo; checking if it is possible to correlate these countertransference aspects with the difficulty in attendance and bond with these patients; if there is a difficulty in these services, which mobilizes personally and which issues involved in the professional choice of these analysts to deal with this type of patient; raising personal questions of these analysts (such as history of eating disorder in their personal or family histories) and correlate this issue with professional choice; and also investigating whether the way the analyst deals with questions about his/her own body and how he conducts his/her food life influence his clinical practice. A theoretical research was carried out, with bibliographical revisions referring to the proposed theme and the concepts that are articulated to the work. Semi-open interviews were also carried out with 5 (five) female analysts who study and work with patients with anorexias and bulimias / Esta pesquisa busca investigar aspectos da prática clínica de analistas que trabalham com pacientes com anorexias e bulimias. Tem por objetivo investigar as especificidades e questões de pertinência particular no encontro do analista com seu paciente; levantar aspectos contratransferenciais surgidos no encontro desta dupla analítica; verificar se é possível correlacionar esses aspectos contratransferenciais à dificuldade no atendimento e vínculo com esses pacientes; verificar se existe uma dificuldade nesses atendimentos, o que mobiliza pessoalmente e quais as questões envolvidas na escolha profissional desses analistas em lidar com esse tipo de paciente; levantar dados pessoais desses analistas (como histórico de transtorno alimentar em suas histórias pessoais ou familiares) e correlacioná-los à escolha profissional; e, ainda, investigar se a forma com que a o analista lida com questões relativas ao seu próprio corpo e como conduz sua vida alimentar influenciam sua prática clínica. Foi feita uma pesquisa teórica, com revisões bibliográficas referente à temática proposta e aos conceitos que se articulam ao trabalho, e também foram realizadas entrevistas semi-abertas com 5 (cinco) analistas mulheres que estudam e trabalham com pacientes com anorexias e bulimias

My interest in the process and effects of the witnessing act guides the purpose of this study. Here, I initiate a deeper understanding of the vicarious witnessing experience from the perspective of the witnessing participant. My central question is: How do individuals make sense of vicariously witnessing trauma through narrative, visual, and evidence-based representations of traumatic events in the concentration camps of Europe? Vicarious witnessing begins with abstract representations of the event. The evidence is witnessed firsthand, but the event itself is represented through various perspectives such as photographic or artistic images, survivor stories, or physical remnants. Witnessing the evidence evokes a potent embodied experience, so that a person can make the statement, "I have imagined what another has experienced, hence I believe I know." It is through the imagination that a witness forms a picture of the trauma. Undoubtedly, there is immense power in meeting another's experience in the realm of imagination. Compassionate action and social justice is based in this area of human empathy. To best achieve my purpose, I use a narrative method that involves two types of analysis, interpretive readings and narrative instances, as an approach to understand the participant's experience of vicarious witnessing. Participants in this study construct three types of narrative texts-written, spoken, and visual. Each textual perspective shapes the meaning that the participant attempts to express. As a first level of analysis, interpretive readings of the texts include general, specific, visual, and relational readings. Secondly, through exploring the interaction between various parts of these texts, and between the texts themselves, I explore three types of narrative instances--single-text, intratextual, and intertextual. Each analysis of a narrative instance is matched specifically to each participant, and I believe, is uniquely adequate for understanding the experience of vicarious witnessing. My inquiry outlines how individuals make sense of vicariously witnessing trauma, clarifies the meaning that participants make of the vicarious witnessing experience, shows the risks and coping involved in vicarious witnessing, and presents the kinds of social action that vicarious witnessing evokes. In the field of counselling psychology, the witnessing experience is an important aspect of trauma theory that has been left unexplored by psychologists. My research enlarges the social and theoretical conversation concerning the vicarious witnessing experience.
