THERAPEUTIC SETTING: A DIALOGUE BETWEEN LOGOTERAPHY AND CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY

Abstract

The objective of this article is to analyze the contributions of Logotherapy to the discussion of the therapeutic setting in the tradition of Clinical Psychology. Despite not being treated systematically by Viktor Frankl, we sought, with the methodology of bibliographical research, to configure it with the theory and practice developed. In the analysis there are aspects of the logotherapeutic setting: the phenomenological method; ethics, with philosophical anthropology and thepillars of Logotheory; the technique: dereflection, paradoxical intention and attitude modulation. The setting in Logotherapy contributes to the reflection of this concept in Clinical Psychology and instigatesempirical research that deepens the current development of this approach in the Brazilian context.
