The journey to be a therapist : personal experiences of ethics in training and therapy

The tone of this dissertation is in the first person as allowed by the lens of constructivism used in it.
Being constantly self-reflective, the author takes the reader through his personal journey to be a therapist,
and the ethical dimensions encountered in the process, to indicate that one cannot do therapy \\'ithout
considering ethics in the fusion of the professional and personal selves of the therapist.-
What is lost in the delineated field of observation is hoped to be gained, in the richness of its personal
material. Not aiming at drawing any generalisable arguments, the purpose of the dissertation is to provoke
a dialogue about our ethical conduct with clients, indicating that our therapeutic conduct is enriched by
constantly involving ourselves in the ethical dilemmas that emerge in the therapeutic process. / Psychology / M.A. (Clinical Psychology)
