Daseinsanalysis Group Conculting as an Alternative of Secundary Specific Prevention in a Primary School

Abstract

This article, a contribution to the Psychotherapy Colloquy of the Prague College of Psychosocial Studies, conveys experience and ideas concerning possibilities of utilizing group daseinsanalytic consulting in a primary school setting. Daseinsanalysis as a psychotherapeutic school issues from phenomenology, existential anthropology, phenomenologico-hermeneutical approach, individual and group psychoterapy. The author introduces prominent Czech persons from the realms of philosophy and psychology who inspired her on her way toward the daseinsanalytic consulting, and reports her experience from a one-year practical application thereof in intense cooperation with the form teacher and her behavior problems displaying pupils of the seventh to eight grade.
