Relational ethics

2 conversations between Social Constructionist, Sheila McNamee and Narrative Therapist, Peggy Sax, explore the subtlety of ethics in a relational context and nuance of working in a small community setting. "The field of psychotherapy (as most professional fields) has been fraught with a concern for ethical action where 'ethical action' generally infers "doing the right thing." Yet, when we operate within a postmodern sensibility - a world that embraces uncertainty as opposed to certainty, continual change as opposed to stability, and local/historical/cultural contingencies rather than universal laws - answering the question of what counts as ethical practice requires an entirely different focus of attention." Neighborly Ways of Being is the name given to Peggy Sax work with her Vermont clients to restore meaning and purpose, while transforming painful experiences. "I (Peggy) was guided by the belief that therapeutic conversations can strengthen social connectedness within the family, as well as in naturally occurring communities."

  • ""This conversation between social constructionist Shelia McNamee and narrative therapist Peggy Sax explores the subtlety of ethics in a relational context and examines the nuance of working in a small community setting. Operating with a postmodern sensibility--embracing uncertainty over certainty, continual change over stability, and local/historical/cultural contingencies over universal laws--allows counselors to determine whether a new focus of attention is required for ethical practice."--cover."
