Authors: Roberts, Kathleen Abstract: This small-scale qualitative study examined the ways in which psychodynamic counsellors addressed issues relating to their self-care during the transition into private practice. Semi-structured interviews were undertaken with eleven psychodynamic counsellors recruited through snowballing. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to analyse the data. Both principle and virtue ethics were taken into consideration throughout.

This research seeks to examine, through a discursive analytic perspective, contemporary psychodynamic theorising and practice to see what happens when clients bring animal related material to their sessions. How is such sensitivity understood, conceptualised and worked with? What might this tell us about both the psychodynamics of concern for members of other species and psychoanalysis as a body of institutionalised knowledge and professional praxis?

The aim is to explore their experiences of counsellor accreditation, from the beginning of their training, on a Certificate course, through to becoming fully accredited. All participants in this study have completed the same training course but at different times and had been accredited within the last three years with either the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) or United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). The choice of this enquiry was inspired by my personal experiences of accreditation and that of my colleagues, during a University based four year postgraduate psychodynamic counselling course. Analysis of the interviews attempts to reveal the significant themes relating to the participants' experiences of the accreditation process. The results are then discussed in some depth and conclusions are then drawn. Description: Masters Dissertation Tue, 01 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10142/120083 2008-01-01T00:00:00Z
