“…That is on collaborative power and the importance of being aware of power, and how to embrace power-with other whilst remaining authentically present. Ultimately, what participants in this research noted was the perspective which is noted in some literature on power: that through encounter, individuals become empowered to contribute and change society too (Natiello 2001;Proctor 2002;Schmid 2015b).…”

“…Furthermore, Lago went on to cite the root meaning of the word 'encounter' from the word 'encountre' developed from the old French word 'encontrer', which means 'to meet. ' Schmid (2015b) drew on aspects of encounter which related to standing counter to one's expectations out of an attitude of curiosity, and empathy, whilst being open to being surprised by the other. In addition, Schmid (2018, p.1) stated that etymologically, "encounter" originates from the Latin word "contra," for "against" and therefore asserted that to en-counter another person has to firstly acknowledge difference and thus recognizing that both really "stand counter".…”

“…The data on the needs of sociomedical treatments correspond with subjective estimates of therapists on their daily work, which also showed that they consider such interventions as part of their routine (Linden, 2009).

Objective: Psychological disorders often take a long-term course, resulting in impairment in daily life and work. Treatment must therefore target not only symptoms of illness but also capacity limitations and context restrictions, as outlined in the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). This includes sociomedical and interdisciplinary interventions like coordination with other specialists, contact to employers and employment agencies, social support agencies, debt counselling, self-help and leisure groups. There are no data on the spectrum, rate and unmet needs of sociomedical interventions in outpatient psychotherapy. Method: Following a semistructured interview schedule, 131 psychotherapists in private practice were asked to report on unselected patients. The interviewer assessed to what degree 38 predefined sociomedical interventions were applied so far or should be considered in the future. Result: Reports for 322 patients were gathered. All sociomedical interventions were applied, depending on the sick leave status and course of illness. Cognitive behaviour therapists used more sociomedical interventions than psychodynamic therapists. Conclusion: The data show that sociomedical interventions are a frequent part of psychotherapy. They are used preferably in patients with participation restrictions. Psychotherapeutic concepts and education should include sociomedical aspects.

“…Maureen O’Hara’s vision of humanistic psychology promoting “narratives of hope and solidarity” can be an antidote to the “current narratives of despair, fear, and division” in a number of specific concrete ways, as described above. But I also think that in order to effectively accomplish this, there needs to be a merging of humanistic psychology with progressive politics (Benjamin, 2020a, 2020b; House et al, 2018; Proctor et al, 2006; Schmid, 2015). Progressive politics is intertwined with values inclusive of social reform, nonviolent dissent, freedom of speech, combating climate change, limiting the power of monopolistic corporations, environmental justice, economic and political equality, and improvement of the human condition (Greenberg & Levin, 2019; The Progressive Magazine, 2020; Sargent, 2018; Wikipedia, 2020).…”

This article discusses the relationship of humanistic psychology to what the author perceives as the dangerous leadership and rhetoric of United States President Donald Trump, in particular in regard to the severe crisis of the coronavirus pandemic. President Trump’s divisive political and racist rhetoric is described with an emphasis on it quite possibly being linked to a rise in xenophobic violence against Asian Americans, which is related to Asian Americans being unfairly blamed for the spread of the coronavirus. Core values of humanistic psychology consisting of genuine and empathic human relationships, personal growth and transformation, and creativity are offered as antidotes to the severe world of lockdowns, social distancing, and remote interactions becoming the norm that we are currently witnessing in the existential crisis of the coronavirus pandemic. The author utilizes his own experience in the Resisting Trump progressive politics movement as an additional antidote and focuses on the extreme urgency of doing so in our current coronavirus pandemic existential crisis. Finally, the author conveys the importance of working through humanistic psychology cofounder Abraham Maslow’s lower and higher levels simultaneously in Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, to survive the coronavirus pandemic.
