  • Presence, Being, Initiation: Understanding and Teaching Presence, the Lineage and Legacy of James Bugental an Essay Presented Fo
    Presence, Being, Initiation: Understanding and Teaching Presence, the Lineage and Legacy of James Bugental An essay presented for the Elizabeth K. and James F. T. Bugental Student Scholarship Award Saybrook University Oakland, California Juanita Ratner [email protected] April 28, 2017 Ratner Bugental’s Legacy and Lineage 2 Abstract Presence is a foundational construct in humanistic, existential, and existential-humanistic psychotherapy. One of the prominent theorists and practitioners of existential-humanistic psychotherapy, James Bugental, articulated the place and meaning of presence and its relation to being or beingness. He trained and truly formed outstanding psychotherapists who continue to teach, practice, and live according to the principles they learned from him. The practice of presence must be learned experientially; those defensive fears, habitual ways of thinking, and self-limiting behaviors that stand in the way of presence must be directly seen and understood. Gradually doing this, clients can enjoy the freedom of living authentically in presence. Bugental’s “Arts” courses were the medium he used to give therapists intensive exposure to conditions that supported developing presence and authenticity. The Existential-Humanistic Institute’s training program, developed and offered in connection with Saybrook University, continues this formative legacy and lineage in Bugental’s format, offering a similar immersive experience and training in the art of presence and connection with being. Ratner Bugental’s Legacy and Lineage 3 Introduction In humanistic, existential, and existential-humanistic (E-H) psychotherapy, there is an underlying assumption that human beings are multi-dimensional, and that there is a reality deeper and more fundamental than the socialized self or even the workings of the brain and nervous system.

  • Client-Centered and Existential Approaches: Are They Mostly Similar Or Different?
    Kolpachnikov V. V. CLIENT-CENTERED AND EXISTENTIAL APPROACHES: ARE THEY MOSTLY SIMILAR OR DIFFERENT? BASIC RESEARCH PROGRAM WORKING PAPERS SERIES: PSYCHOLOGY WP BRP 14/PSY/2013 This Working Paper is an output of a research project implemented at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE). Any opinions or claims contained in this Working Paper do not necessarily reflect the views of HSE. Kolpachnikov V. V. 1 CLIENT-CENTERED AND EXISTENTIAL APPROACHES: ARE THEY MOSTLY SIMILAR OR DIFFERENT?2 This article analyzes Client-Centered (Person-Centered) and Existential approaches in counseling and psychotherapy. The proximity of these approaches, both in theoretical and practical terms, is demonstrated. Keywords: Client-Centered Psychotherapy(CCT), Person-Centered approach (PCA), Existential approach, quality of contact between client and counselor, centration on experience of client, phenomenology, awareness, comprehension, choice, full-functioning, being in vital world. JEL Classification: Z 1 National Research University Higher School of Economics, Moscow, Russia 2This article presents reflections and comparison of the Client-centered and Existential approaches as a result of decades of the author’s practicing and teaching these approaches. Introduction I will begin this article with an explication of my own theoretical and personal positions relating to the subject of my analysis. I consider it necessary to do this in as much as it will be of help for the reader to better and more deeply understand my observations, reflections, and conclusions about the relationship between the Person-Centered and Existential approaches in psychological counseling and psychotherapy. Such a course corresponds to tendencies in the modern humanities (and in science as a whole) as knowledge is becoming viewed as inseparable from those who hold knowledge, is personal (Polanyi, 1958), is included in existing scientific discourses, contexts, and dialogues, and is a social construct (Gadamer, 1975; Kvale, 1996; Habermas, 1971 ;Giorgi, 1975, etc.).

  • Sándor Ferénczi and the Origins of Humanistic Psychology
    ARTÍCULOS SOBRE FERENCZI. CONTEXTUALES E HISTÓRICOS SÁNDOR FERENCZI AND THE ORIGINS OF HUMANISTIC PSYCHOLOGY Dassie Hoffman ABSTRACT This article discusses Sándor Ferenczi’s contributions to the evolution of psychoanalytic theories, and how these ideas were passed through the generations. Ferenczi introduced such concepts as greater activity by the psychotherapist, the need for emotional connection between the therapist and client, the significance of the interpersonal aspects of the therapeutic experience, and the place of empathy within the therapeutic milieu. The second generation reviewed here is the Neo-Freudian, including Andras Angyal, Izette deForest, Erich Fromm, Frieda Fromm-Reichmann, Karen Horney, Harry Stack Sullivan, and Clara Thompson. The next generation reviewed is that of the foremost humanistic psychologists, Abraham Maslow, Rollo May, Carl Rogers, and James Bugental. INTRODUCTION This paper focuses on Sándor Ferenczi’s impact upon the ideas of four co-founders of humanistic psychology. The essay is divided into three sections; the first reviews the origins of psychoanalysis, and the importance of Sándor Ferenczi’s ideas to this process; the second section examines how Ferenczi’s ideas influenced the neo-Freudians, and how this next generation employed his theories; the final section of this essay explores the ways in which the co-founders of humanistic psychology, Abraham Maslow, Rollo May, Carl Rogers, and James Bugental were influenced directly and indirectly byFerenczi. THE IMPORTANCE OF SANDOR FERENCZI TO PSYCHOANALYSIS Humanistic psychology evolved partly as a response to the teachings of psychoanalysis and behaviorism: “Some psychologists... drew upon a long tradition linking psychology with the humanities and in a rebellious manner, institutionally founded humanistic psychology.
