Description

First Principles: Applied Ethics for Psychoanalytic Practice (PDF Book)

First Principles, a book by Prof Alessandra Lemma, takes a close look at the vital role of applied ethics in psychoanalytic practice. The book provides an accessible framework for developing and using an ethical self-discipline to reflect critically on a therapist’s psychoanalytic work with patients, and resolve ethical dilemmas. Alessandra Lemma integrates key concepts from applied ethics and bioethics, interpreting them in a psychoanalytic framework. She shows how we can apply concepts like beneficence, non-maleficence, autonomy, justice, and veracity to guide clinical work. The book offers clinical examples and an outline for therapists to reflect on their practice, and even to teach ethics in psychoanalytic psychotherapy training. It’s a must-read for psychoanalytic practitioners, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, counsellors, and psychoanalysts working in the psychoanalytic tradition.
