COMMUNICATION IS NOTHING LESS THAN RELATION: A COMPARISON BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOLOGY AND PHENOMENOLOGICAL PSYCHIATRY

Abstract

Individual Psychology and Phenomenological Psychiatry face each other in this article, exchanging insights on the communication-relation theme; they get closer, they move away, they sometimes interweave, but they always behave in such ways with enthusiasm and participation. We decided to articulate our dialogue dividing our works into two identical paragraphs, followed by our initials in brackets: G. F.= Giuseppe Ferrigno; E. B.= Eugenio Borgna; this way each author analyses and describes the topic both in a theoretical and clinical dimension
