| Abstract | This paper argues that the practice of psychoanalytic psychotherapy is inherently shameful. Failure to grasp this fact distorts our understanding of the nature of what we do as therapists.There are four dimensions in which shame is an inevitable element of the identity and practice of the psychotherapist: social, epistemologica, political and phenomenological. |
