“…The first author found and visualized motifs to create a map (Corel Corporation, 2017) with the following themes: (1) becoming a person, (2) moving away from a narrow identity and (3) developing a creative identity. To ensure trustworthiness, the authors met to discuss themes to check for alternative interpretations (Finlay, 2011; Lincoln, Lynham, & Guba, 2011; Schwandt, Lincoln, & Guba, 2007). In addition, themes and narratives were presented and critically discussed in different ways: at an open meeting with the participants and people involved in the MTW, with the participants who owned the narratives, on a dialogue forum for practice-oriented research in Norway, and at the Culture, Health and Well-Being International Conference in the UK.…”

Background: There is a growing understanding that mental health problems and prolonged contact with mental healthcare systems can affect people’s identities. Working with identity is an important element in mental health recovery. Purpose: In this article, we explore the significance of participation in a music and theatre workshop in terms of people`s experiences of identity. Design and methods: This is a qualitative study based on a hermeneutical phenomenological epistemology. Data were collected from in-depth interviews with 11 participants at a music and theater workshop, analysed through a narrative analysis and presented in an ideographical “long” narrative form. The music and theater workshop is not overtly therapeutic although the activity takes place in a Norwegian mental health hospital for adults living with long-term mental health problems. Results: We identified three crosscutting themes: (1) becoming a whole person, (2) being allowed to hold multiple identities and (3) exploring diverse perspectives. Conclusion: Findings show that participation in the music and theatre workshop transformed the participants’ experiences of identity on two levels: individually and collectively. The participants developed a broader picture of themselves through their creative work with others. When they developed new identities, the narratives of themselves expanded.

“…Ao mesmo tempo, a perspectiva humanística pode lidar com experiências ambientais e seus significados à medida que elas se relacionam com a história, situação social ou cultural particular de uma pessoa ou grupo -por exemplo, o período e local no qual a pessoa vive, suas circunstâncias políticas e econômicas, e seu contexto educacional, religioso e social (ex. Finlay, 2011;Murton, 2012;Simms, 2008;Sowers, 2010). Esta habilidade conceitual e metodológica para examinas as várias diferentes dimensões da vida humana e seus significado demonstra que a geografia humanística pode se mover para além das características do "homem" e dos "seres humanos" denominadas "universais" ou "essenciais" criticadas pelas feministas.…”

“…A perspectiva humanística pode explorar mundosda-vida específicos e situações vividas em particular; na pesquisa fenomenológica atual, por exemplo, é possível encontrar sub-especialidades como "fenomenologia feminista", "fenomenologia dos portadores de deficiência", "fenomenologia das crianças", "fenomenologia da mobilidade", "fenomenologia dos desabrigados", e assim por diante (ex. Finlay, 2011;Moores, 2012, Simms & Stawarska, 2013 (Casey, 2009;Kogl, 2008;Malpas, 1999;Moores, 2013;Mugerauer, 1994;Stefanovic, 2000), lar e habitar (Ingold, 1995;Malpas, 2008;Mugerauer, 2008); paisagem (Lane, 2000;Tilley, 2008);…”

“…Como uma forma de entender o sentido da lugarização vivida mais profundamente, alguns fenomenólogos baseiam-se no conceito de corpo vivido -um corpo que simultaneamente experiencia, age e negocia um mundo que, tipicamente, responde com significacão imediata e presença contextual (Casey, 2009;Finlay, 2011;Seamon, 2013aSeamon, , 2014aToombs, 2001). No que diz respeito à lugarização vivida, fenomenólogos reconhecem que o corpo vivido é um constituinte essencial do lugar e a experiência de lugar porque "corpos vividos pertencem a lugares e ajudam a constituí-los 34 " assim como, simultaneamente "lugares pertencem aos corpos vividos e dependem deles 35 " (Casey, 2009, p. 327).…”

Neste texto ofereço um relato em primeira pessoa sobre a geografia humanística que Cloke e seus colegas competentemente descrevem como a que "traz os seres humanos em toda a sua complexidade para o palco central da geografia humana 2 " (Cloke et al, 1991: 58). Comecei meus estudos de pós-graduação em 1970 em um dos centros acadêmicos dos primeiros trabalhos humanísticos -o Programa de Pós-Graduação em Geografia da Clark University em Worcester, Massachussetts (Canter & Craik, 1987). Fiz meu trabalho de doutorado sob orientação de Anne Buttimer, que foi reconhecida como uma das maiores figuras da geografia humanística (por exemplo Buttimer, 1971Buttimer, , 1974Buttimer, , 1976Buttimer, , 1993 (Seamon, 1979).Baseado parcialmente na minha experiência em Clark e nos esforços profissionais feitos desde então, neste texto eu discorro sobre como começou a geografia humanística, quais foram seus precedentes e se ela desempenha algum papel na pesquisa geográfica atual. Enfatizo o relato em primeira pessoa porque, muito frequentemente, mesmo sem intenção, as filosofias mais comuns da geografia retratam as mudanças conceituais da disciplina como temporalmente finitas. Retratam perspectivas filosóficas mais novas como se elas suplantassem as perspectivas precedentes que estão, elas mesmas, desaparecendo em grande medida (Johnston, 1997;Peet, 1998; Cresswall, 2013). Nestas interpretações padronizadas, dizem que a geografia humanística desapareceu principalmente em torno dos anos 1980 já que suas perspectivas e conclusões foram absorvidas, transformadas ou refutadas por pesquisas mais estruturais, marxistas e feministas. Na realidade, a motivação central e as preocupações temáticas da geografia

“…Contradictions in experience or other contributors to internal dissonance may elevate stress levels and given the close emotional proximity within inpatient life, these stress levels could be easily transferred to other individuals connected with the Unit. Here at the end of the master themes, one can now begin to see the relationship between reflexivity, the phenomenological attending to and valuing of, subjective experience and practitioner research (Finlay, 2011). I argue that without reflexivity, one's own subjectivity will simply be projected onto others and our own unique phenomenological experience will remain hidden.…”

The long sleep-over: the lived experience of teenagers, parents and staff in an adolescent psychiatric unit

Adolescents are in a particular life cycle stage that involves numerous psychosocial changes. When this stage of life is compounded by serious mental health difficulties, the effects can have significant repercussions for both teenager and family. For some adolescents, an extended inpatient stay is necessary in order to address these difficulties. This research investigates the subjective experience of adolescents, their parents and staff who live, work and have a child in such a facility; the Barrett Adolescent Centre (BAC) located in Brisbane Australia. The qualitative study was completed by the sole social work practitioner who was employed at the Unit for over eight years.The Unit was a long stay residential facility and provided the opportunity to collect data over an extended period of time. The research therefore emerges from an insider, practitioner-researcher context. The primary research question focused on how the collective experiences of adolescent consumers, parents and staff can inform mental health practice in adolescent residential settings.A review of the literature suggests that there is a strong tendency to incorporate concepts from the adult mental health literature into adolescent mental health practice. The notion of recovery is an example, which is heavily influenced by conceptualisations of adult experience. Consequently, the aim of the present research was to better understand the participants holistically, but also in the appropriate developmental context; incorporating the social, emotional and experiential domains that form the lived experience of inpatient life. Broadly speaking, the key areas of interest included how the notion of recovery was experienced by the adolescents, the experiences of the parents during their child's inpatient stay, and the experiences of the staff while helping the adolescents.The research emphasises and values subjectivity as well as the interpretation of significant personal experience. Subsequently, the study is located within an interpretative phenomenological analysis frame. It is also informed by critical realism that posits that mental illness is an objectively real phenomenon, though experienced uniquely by each individual affected by it. Semi-structured interviews formed the basis of the data, involving the three population groups of adolescent inpatients, their parents and staff. A total of 13 adolescents, 10 staff and 8 parents were interviewed.Single interviews were utilised for all participant groups as well as a small focus group of the three primary staff professions; that of Allied Health, Nursing and Education. The use of photography was also utilised with the adolescents in order to explore various facets of the therapeutic milieu from their perspective. The adolescents were also offered successive interviews over a number of ii months to enrich the picture of inpatient life. Elements such as family, education, consumer-staff relations as well as the recovery process were investigated.Hermeneutical thematic analysis uncovered ric...
