Description

Beyond Clinical Dehumanisation Toward the Other in Community Mental Health Care offers a rare and intimate portrayal of the moral process of a mental health clinician that interrogates the intractable problem of systemic dehumanisation in community mental health care. This interdisciplinary study contributes an original and compelling voice to the emerging therapeutic conversation attempting to re-imagine and transcend the objectifying constraints of the dominant discourse.

Key Features

Explores the notion of "wonder" and visionary relational ethics of Emmanuel Levinas.
Engages in dialogue across multiple fields including psychology, clinical ethics, and the medical humanities.
Addresses the moral injury of the clinician and the defilement of vulnerable help seekers.
Serves as an ethical primer for mental health professionals and advocates.

Additional Information

This book aims to challenge the underpinnings of entrenched dehumanisation and to stand with those they "serve." It looks for answers beyond the reductive world view that drives current practices in mental health care.
