FERREIRA, Maristela Vendramel and ANTUNEZ, Andrés Eduardo Aguirre. Intersubjectivity in Michel Henry: the therapeutic relatinship. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.1, pp.92-96. ISSN 1809-6867.
The psychotherapy develops in the context of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the patient. The intersubjectivity is fundamental because it is in this context that psychotherapeutic work is evolved. Michel Henry (1922-2002), French philosopher and novelist, developed the Phenomenology of Life, which reveals the originary role of affects in the individual's constitution in his relationship with himself, with others and with the world. The objective of this paper is to discuss intersubjectivity within the theoretical frame of the Michel Henry's Phenomenology of Life, considering what this knowledge contribute to the understanding of this relevant concept to the psychological clinic.
