TAt school, his Irish brogue and quick mind made him unpopular among school- mates. Then, at age 81/2, the boy experienced an intimate relationship with a 13-year-old boy that transformed his life. The two boys remained unpopular with other children, but they developed close bonds with each other. Most scholars (Alexander, 1990, 1995; Chapman, 1976; Havens, 1987) believe that the relationship between these boys—Harry Stack Sullivan and Clarence Bellinger—was at least in some ways homosexual, but others (Perry, 1982) believed that the two boys were never sexually intimate. Why is it important to know about Sullivan’s sexual orientation? This knowl- edge is important for at least two reasons. First, a personality theorist’s early life his- tory, including gender, birth order, religious beliefs, ethnic background, schooling, as well as sexual orientation, all relate to that person’s adult beliefs, conception of humanity, and the type of personality theory that that person will develop.

Abstract There is considerable controversy, both within and outside the field of psychiatry, regarding the boundaries of normal sadness and clinical depression. Furthermore, while there are frequent calls for a "pluralistic", comprehensive approach to understanding depression, few writers have tried to integrate insights from the spiritual, philosophical, and neurobiological literature. The author proposes that such a synthesis is possible, and that our understanding of ordinary sorrow and clinical depression is enriched by drawing from these disparate sources. In particular, a phenomenological analysis of sorrow and depression reveals two overlapping but distinct "lifeworlds". These differ in the relational, temporal, dialectical, and intentional realms. Recent brain imaging studies are also beginning to reveal the neurobiological correlates of sorrow and depression. As we come to understand the neurobiology of these states, we may be able to correlate specific alterations in "neurocircuitry" with their phenomenological expressions.

  • When You Feel Disorganized Or Incompetent As a Beginning Therapist: What to Do About It
    When You Feel Disorganized or Incompetent as a Beginning Therapist: What to do about it We have a theory that once we have gotten our license that we “know what to do” and we have an identity as a “therapist.” The fact is, once out of school, we don’t always know what to do. We have begun a lifelong journey as perpetual learners. Further, we don’t “have” an identity, we are always developing as therapists, so our “identity”, or the symbol of who we are is always changing because we are always changing. Every time we learn something new, it conflicts with our earlier learnings or assumptions. We go through a period of integration, which really means a period of disorganization as our usual way of working is shaken up. It takes a while for us to integrate new information and new techniques into our work and into our being. We start relating differently to ourselves and to our patients---if we are learning and growing. Beginning therapists often approach me thinking there is something wrong because they are feeling overwhelmed or disorganized in their work and their identity. Nothing is wrong; something is right: they are growing and changing. The identity as a therapist in terms of how they work and how they are is changing rapidly. They thought of their identity and way of working as fixed, not realizing that we are always changing if we are growing. Normalizing this is necessary if therapists are going to learn to tolerate the anxiety of changing and growing.

  • Suicidal No Longer M. A. Hoover B. L. Paulson University of Alberta
    Canadian Journal of Counselling / Revue canadienne de counseling / 1999, Vol. 33:3 227 Suicidal No Longer M. A. Hoover B. L. Paulson University of Alberta Abstract In this phenomenological study, participants who had been suicidal were interviewed and asked, "What was helpful in suicidal healing?" Participants' stories of healing were analysed themati- cally. The metaphor of "A Journey Away From the Self describes the participants' suicidal processes as disconnection from others and from the self: their feelings, their self-worth, and their ability to negotiate their lives. The "Return to the Self describes their healing as reconnection with others and with the self, developing new perspectives of the self and living, becoming self-accepting, self-advancing, and self-enduring. This investigation of the suicidal person's perspective contributes the voice of those "Suicidal No Longer." The the• matic structure identifies processes that have implications for conceptualizing and directing treatment. Résumé Dans cette étude phénoménologique, des participants, autrefois suicidaires, ont répondu à la question suivante : "Qu'est-ce qui vous a été utile pendant le processus de votre guérison?" Une analyse thématique de leurs histoires a ensuite été faite. La métaphore "Un voyage loin du soi" décrit les processus qui ont amené les participants à se sentir suicidaires comme une séparation des autres, du soi, de leurs sentiments, de la perception de leur propre valeur et de leurs capacités à gérer leur vie. L'autre métaphore, "Le retour vers le soi," décrit le processus de guérison comme étant le rétablissement de liens significatifs de l'individu avec les autres et avec son soi intérieur.

In its 2006 report, New Directions, HPRAC suggested that the proposed “controlled act of psychotherapy” was not viable and CAPT concurred with this conclusion.
