Spiritual Care : When Psychoanalysts and Patients Face Existential Concerns on Living and Dying
Overview
Psychoanalysis, depth psychology, attachment theory, narratology, and theology are partners in a spiritual care approach originating in dialogue and discussion between Eckhard Frick (psychiatrist, theologian, psychoanalyst) and Brigitte Boothe (psychologist, psychoanalyst, researcher in literature and narratology). Excellent professionalism is crucial in medical and therapeutic treatment for severely ill, burdened, and dying persons. But no treatment programme prevents the process of dying. Instead, engaged relatedness is highly relevant when confronted with the limits of manageability, control and professionality. The exploration of the spiritual dimension in human relations and the human course of life unfolds in forms of interpersonal dialogues in various contexts, inviting openness in a mindset of receptivity and resonance.
