THE PHENOMENON OF PSYCHOLOGICAL CAPITULATION IN THE PROCESS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT IN CASE OF PROBLEMS WITH ADAPTATION AND SELF-IDENTITY
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to explore the problematic and effectiveness of psychotherapeutic practices in the context of risks of psychological capitulation. The paper presents the results of phenomenological research of client activities, therapist activities and helpful therapeutic effects in existential group therapy. The data were collected during the group therapy given by Dr. A. E. Alekseichik ―Life Psychotherapy. Intensive Therapeutic Faith‖, held in November2014 inthe city ofKemerovo,Russia. To collect the data we used the measures developed by Mick Cooper and John McLeod (2011) and described within the framework of the pluralistic approach of psychotherapy they pioneered. The study required to collect reflexive assessments and reports by the participants of the therapeutic group. The purpose for collecting and processing the data analyzed in this paper was to identify the meanings of the most effective activities, events and processes.
