"A layman will no doubt find it hard to understand how pathological
disorders of the body and mind can be eliminated by ‘mere’
words. He will feel that he is being asked to believe in magic. And
he will not be so very wrong for the words which we use in our
everyday speech are nothing more than watered down magic." (Freud)
This book provides further developments of such ideas, including
Freud’s uncanny, Jung’s synchronicity, Daniels’
transpersonal, Clarke’s mindfulness and Sollod’s anomalous
experiences. The paranormal could be seen as being fundamental to
the psychological therapies. Occasionally a writer brings this
potential to our attention but questions of science, evidence-based
practice, etc. continue to dominate. Yet does this continue to lead
to ‘what’s denied running even more wild’? Further, might the
lessening of the paranormal be primarily what is lost, the aura,
through the increase in internet therapy? The question of the
paranormal and the psychological therapies continues to persist,
not only for psychoanalysis but the psychological therapies in
general. This book attempts to address that. The chapters in this
book, apart from a new introduction and a new chapter, were
originally published in the European Journal of Psychotherapy and
Counselling.
