Sofrer com o próprio ser: a Daseinsanalyse de Alice Holzhey-Kunz e a inclusão pré-ontológica da existência como fundamento do sofrimento existencial

Abstract

In this article I present Daseinsanalysis as developed by Alice Holzhey-Kunz, who is a member of the second generation of daseinsanalists. I begin by pointing to her objetive of reintroducing hermeneutics in psychotherapy and making it more heideggerian and freudian. I then indicate the meaning of psychological suffering: it is suffering from one's own being, that is, from 'human' condition, such as described by Heidegger in Being and time. The key concept in this paradigm is 'pre-ontological inclusion', which means that every existence relates to its being. The human condition shows itself and limits everyday living in psychopathological modes of being. I end this article indicating consequences for psychotherapeutic practice.
