Mating with the world : on the nature of story-telling in psychotherapy

Shann, Stephen Charles, University of Western Sydney, Hawkesbury, Faculty of Social Inquiry, School of Social Ecology January 2000 (has links)
What is going on in a therapeutic setting when one person tells a story to another? Is it really as it appears to be, with the story being told in order to communicate some information, either affective or factual? Or is this way of thinking about the business of therapy limiting, both for the people concerned (therapist and patient) and for those who theorise about the therapeutic process? These are the questions around which this work is organised. The thesis itself takes the form of a story being told, the story of a therapist, his client, and his clinical supervisor.The story of these relationships is used to argue that stories are told more to create something (a relationship) and forge something (a more vital connection to an animating world) than to communicate something.The author draws on both a philosophical, and a psychoanalytical tradition to show what he suggest are more vital ways of thinking about human behaviour in general and the therapeutic encounter in particular. / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Històries de malaltia : anàlisi narrativa en l'experiència de càncer

Espinàs i Olvera, Laura 12 July 2010 (has links)
En la present tesi doctoral es presenta, des d'una perspectiva narrativa i socioconstruccionista, una aproximació a l'estudi de l'experiència de malaltia en càncer a partir del treball amb relats narrats. Es realitza una anàlisi narrativa de la construcció de les històries de malaltia a partir dels relats escrits per les persones "malaltes" i /o els seus familiars. Es cerquen elements per a la reflexió de: a) el paper de la narració en la comprensió de l'experiència de malaltia oncològica i la construcció narrativa d'identitat; b) l'ús del mètode d'anàlisi narrativa dins el camp de la salut/malaltia; i c) implicacions i aplicacions en la pràctica terapèutica. Seguint una orientació metodològica qualitativa, s'analitza la construcció de narratives de malaltia i del self, la construcció i relació amb els personatges de la història, la construcció de la malaltia (càncer), així com les potencialitats i limitacions de l'aproximació narrativa en l'estudi. Finalment, es presenten elements narratius per a la reflexió del seu ús en l'atenció psicològica i la pràctica del professional de la salut en càncer. / In this doctoral thesis it is presented, from a narrative and socio constructionist perspective, an approach to the study of the cancer disease experience, based on working with narrated tales. A narrative analysis of disease stories construction is done from the tales written by ill people or their relatives. Elements for reflection are searched about: a) the narration role in the oncological disease experience understanding and the narrative construction of identity; b) the use of the narrative analysis method in the health/disease context; and c) implications and applications in the therapeutic practice. Following a qualitative methodological orientation, the disease and self narratives, the construction and relation between the story characters, and the disease construction (cancer) are analysed, as well as the potentials and limitations of the study narrative approach. Finally, narrative elements are presented for the reflection about its use in the psychological attention and cancer health professional practice.
