psychological and philosophical issues in therapy  

Definición

  • The entry discusses therapy as understood by psychology, in the form of psychotherapy, and concentrates on the two main kinds of philosophical issues surrounding it: first, the issue of values involved in psychotherapy, or in general the normative challenges unavoidably related to it, and, second, the issue of its epistemic status, that is, the question of the evidential support the outcome of psychotherapy may be said to enjoy. At one time, only the so-called insight therapies, those heavily influenced by the views of Sigmund Freud, were classified as psychotherapies.
