Abstract

We want to share in this presentation, how the practical philosophy of Baruch Spinoza, with its ethical, immanent and non-dualistic vision of the world, provides an epistemological support that gives coherence, clarity and effectiveness to our way of being and working in helping relationships.We will present in broad strokes the philosophy of Spinoza and its fundamental concepts, in relation to the most important ideas of the Person-Centered Approach, which have a more direct impact on our psychotherapeutic task. We will start with a first concept, which, in some way, will allow us to understand everything else.
