| Summary: | The problem of theoretical substantiation of
modern psychotherapeutic methods is stated to be one of the main ones. It
is noted that the goals of psychotherapeutic interventions should reflect
the orientation toward achieving certain changes. It is shown that depending on the motivation and severity of the problem, the psychotherapeutic
cooperation can be reduced not only to a short-term study of a particular
problem, but also to time-limited intensive psychotherapy. An example of
long-term psychotherapy is classical psychoanalysis. It is noted that the
borderline level of the personality organization implies problems with basic
trust, autonomy and a sense of identity; such a person tends to turn only to
primitive psychological defenses, abusing them. It is stated that it is necessary to diagnose the patient’s mental state. It is shown that the existential
and humanistic approaches are under the extremely powerful influence of
aggressive antipsychiatric ideology, that denies the need for any diagnosis
and is guided by the ideas of the integrity of a personality and the impossibility of its consideration through the prism of diagnosis. It is noted that
the isolation of precisely those aspects that directly or indirectly interfere
with the healthy functioning of the personality are an extremely important
and sometimes a vital aspect of the work of the medical psychologist, since
they provide targeted psychotherapeutic assistance and help to exclude the
possibility of organic disorders and mental illnesses. |
