“ Nessuno di noi abita il
mondo, ma esclusivamente la propria
visione del mondo…
Non tutto pain and pathology. Often the pain is just
ignorance of self. " Umberto Galimberti
The Philosophical Counseling has a distinct identity, and belongs to various forms of philosophical practice and counseling to address the humanistic - existential.
It was born in Germany in 1981 on the initiative of the philosopher Gerard Achenbach, who recalled the role of practical importance that has had the philosophy in classical Greece.
is how, in the mid-eighties, this approach to helping relationship when the counselor does not treat the customer, but takes care of him.
The philosophical counseling is the use of the service philosophy dilemmas of everyday life. No longer relegated to the libraries as has been done in recent centuries, the philosophy through philosophical counseling regains its original identity, that of being at the service of man. Concrete man, the fact of reason and emotion, in the real world because of work, relationships and feelings.
The Philosophical Counseling is for those who are motivated by the desire to:
1) clear up the doubts and misgivings about the meaning and value of life.
2) Release the "mental cramps" or postures of logical thought little fruitful for
deal on a functional environment.
3) Be aware of lifestyle choices.
4) Turn the light its implicit worldview.
5) Analyze the compatibility between their beliefs and way of life.
The Philosophical Counseling is part of a process recently, the importance of practice in the disciplines of philosophy. It 's so new in this process? In reality it was to distinguish Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics, for the first time in Western thought, philosophy pure, theoretical, the practical philosophy, wisdom, wisdom: sophia (the highest form of knowledge) from phronesis (the knowledge of human affairs and the art of leading them in a good and effective).
The Philosophical Counseling is then, the emphasis of phronesis in Sophia (Tanturli).
How can we define the CF? It 's a helping relationship in which an expert-the-Counselor offers customers its expertise to resolve and respond to specific questions of existence. The Philosophical Counselor is a kind of Socratic facilitator, a catalyst for decision-making and clarifying; facilitate a greater appreciation of customer's personal resources and a greater possibility of expression. Here are some
definition given by philosophers who work within the CF.
"The professional philosopher is not necessarily required to make best le cose o ad aiutare a eliminare i problemi, ma piuttosto a renderli comprensibili nella loro complessità, in modo che l’altro possa vivere con essi, piuttosto che contro o a dispetto di essi". Petra Von Morstein, consulente filosofico canadese
“Come esperto nell’interpretazione delle visioni del mondo, il consulente filosofico aiuta i consultanti a scoprire i diversi significati che sono contenuti nei loro modi di vita ed esamina criticamente quegli aspetti problematici che rappresentano le loro difficoltà. Egli non offre teorie, ma piuttosto pratiche e strumenti per analisi concettuali, problematizzazioni, individuazioni di assunti nascosti, descrizioni, distinzioni, indicazioni di rapporti. Tali strumenti possono help clients examine their reality and to critically review them "visions." Ran Lahav, philosophical counselor Israeli
"The goal of the philosophical counselor is not simply to make you happy and satisfied customers, but rather to clarify and improve their ideas and world views through a process of critical reflection. It is assumed that this reflection can often lead to solutions to customer problems, and that this can be derived satisfaction and happiness, but will focus on analyzing the philosophical world views associated with the existential problems of the client, not on problems themselves. The philosophical counselors can prepare unique services and great value - a critical analysis of ideas and visions of the world issues - but the philosophical counseling is not psychotherapy or spiritual counseling. "Roger Paden, American philosophical counselor.
" And those who refuse to surrender all'ottundimento, because it still has a discrete self-awareness, those who turn when he meets not this or that pain, around which crowd the psychotherapies, but the pain that that essence is the unavailability of a sense? You do not need psychotherapy because it is not "pathological" as they would have us believe, ask questions, to test their ideas, consider your vision of the world see all that is narrow, with narrow, of fossilized, rigid, of arrest, of unfit to deal with changes in their lives and so rapid and unexpected changes in the world. If not all the pain and disease, a response to this kind of pain and discomfort, better than psychotherapy, can give the philosophy, born in Greece in the fifth century BC C. not only knowledge, but as a way of life. These were the first Greek philosophical schools of philosophy, amputating itself, no further interest in life and become only theoretical knowledge, settling on land that today the sciences are eroding day by day. None of us live in the world, but only their worldview. It is not found a sense of our existence before they come to a clarification of our vision of the world, responsible for our way of thinking and acting, to rejoice and to suffer. This clarification is not a matter of psychotherapy. Who asks a philosophical counseling is not "sick", is just looking for a meaning. And where you can find a meaning, even in the sense that underground and ignored, runs their lives without our knowing, except in those proposals is precisely the sense in which philosophy and its history? Thus in 1981 the German philosopher Gerd Achenbach opened the first study in Germany of philosophical counseling, followed the foundation of a society for philosophical practice, become poi internazionale per la sua diffusione in Olanda, Francia, Stati Uniti, Israele”. U. Galimberti, “La Repubblica”, 15 dicembre 2004.
Nell' ambito del Counseling Filosofico grande importanza è data allo spazio interpersonale, che si crea attraverso l’alleanza terapeutica, come fondamentale spazio per filoso-fare. E' dal problema reale, portato dal cliente, che nasce la riflessione filosofica. Non quindi una filosofia fine a se stessa, che si risolve nella pratica astratta e lontana dalla realtà, bensì un atteggiamento che consente di agire e di intervenire, in modo efficace, sulle questioni della vita reale.
Lo scopo del Counseling Filosofico è quello di offrire l’opportunità to explore, discover and make clear patterns of thought and action, to live more consciously their own life choices and their lives in general.
What is the relationship between Philosophical Counseling and Psychotherapy?
"The more intensive counseling and could not be distinguished from an equally intense psychotherapy and successful" Carl Rogers
The Philosophical Counseling is identified as a form of intervention, such as counseling in general, focused on people with no mental illness . Some scholars have described a treatment for healthy (L. Marinoff). E 'can in fact identify and outline a series of problems, their dell'esistenza normale, e quindi non definibili come patologici, che rappresentano i campi di intervento specifici del Counseling Filosofico: i disagi esistenziali (il senso della vita, la malattia, la morte, l' amore, la felicità, la tristezza, …); i conflitti che derivano da difficoltà decisionali (riguardanti se stessi, i rapporti di coppia, la famiglia, gli studi, le scelte professionali, il lavoro, …); le questioni riguardanti interrogativi etici e morali (la fedeltà, la libertà, la giustizia, l'aborto, la fecondazione artificiale, l'eutanasia, i trapianti, la donazione di organi, …); le esigenze intellettuali di ricerca e conoscenza, che comprendono l' eventualità, rare but possible, be asked a philosophical support for the intellectual pleasure of meeting a need.
There are a number of cases of boundary conditions defined, usually treated by psychotherapy, which can be considered an area of \u200b\u200boverlap between the pathological and non pathological. Which also means that, by their very nature, can benefit both the Philosophical Counseling dall'approccio that psychotherapy (Psyche in Ancient Greece indicated, the breath, by extension, life, existence, the ' soul and spirit. therapeia meant caring, the art of caring for someone philosophically psychotherapy can be understood as "soul care"). Among the cases of the border can be considered: the conditions of existential anxiety and depression stemming from a pervasive feeling of emptiness and loss of meaning of existence, the so-called existential crisis typical of transition age (adolescence, middle age, el'andropausa menopause, age, senescence, ...), the crisis of values \u200b\u200band meanings related to specific issues, which frequently leads to a loss of balance emotional aspects of personality that help define the type of staff and in some cases create personal problems (shyness, irritability, pessimism, insecurity, ...).
Rastrojo Barrientos, Counselor English philosopher, in its Manual of Philosophical Counseling, distinguishes three different about the current relationship between Philosophical Counseling and psychotherapy.
There is an initial position of "harmony" based on a distinction between the two disciplines are not devoid of openings collaborative. The separation would tend to be based on the dyad conscious / unconscious defining Philosophical Counseling as a treatment for healthy people. A typical example of the position is that of Lou Marinoff and Ruschmann.
The second position is defined as "symbiosis", which is an attempt to graft methods and knowledge of the psychotherapies in Counseling Philosophical. Among the "symbiotic" we can mention the Italian Ludovico Berra, Tim LeBon and Luis Cencillo.
The third and last position is that of "separation and super-critical", in which the universe of values \u200b\u200band practices of psychotherapy is subject to criticism and Philosophical Counseling is posited as something different. Among these include, Barrientos Rastrojo, Schuster, Achenbach and pullets.
As in other sectors of the relations of aid, even for Philosophical Counseling is important to refer to professionals who have done an adequate training and training. In Rome, the University of Tor Vergata el'Aspic (Association for individual development and the Community), have set up a second level master, the same has made the University of Rome and the Sicof in combination with the Salesian Pontifical University (UPS).
