A note from the ANTI-YESH PSYCHOLOGIST series. A psychologist's office, his personal space. What should a psychologist's home office, part of his personal space, be filled with? Not the place where he meets with clients, but the place where he can be in solitude, think, work or do something neutral. A kind of professional-pastoral picture immediately appears before his eyes. A fireplace to sit and watch the fire. A cabinet with books in which Fromm, May, Frankl, Yalom, Rogers, Jung, Freud share their views on the world and, of course, serious literature from the “General Psychology” and “Psychotherapy and Counseling” series. A couple of musical instruments, paints/paper/markers for a burst of self-expression. Children's drawings in frames. Perhaps an aquarium with fish. Etc. and so on. ...After all, a psychologist is a person who knows how to see deeply and volumetrically, who can discern the beauty of a person behind his darkest manifestations, who knows how to build constructive, open and trusting relationships. A good-natured guy, with a slightly sad smile, in a thick jumper and corduroy pants. Films about psychologists paint a similar image... There is part of the truth in this. At the same time, a psychologist is also a person who knows how to get angry, rage and show aggression. And his difference from an ordinary person is that he can do this professionally, knowing exactly “where?”, “how?” and, most importantly, “why?” it is necessary, if necessary, to “beat”. Not out of courage, not out of passion, not out of fear. And with calm, surgical precision, predicting the result. And being able to confront, get angry and, if necessary, “fight” is also part of our professional and personal position. This is a necessary skill and allowing yourself to express yourself this way. And the key difference with a regular “brawl” is that as a result, all parties have a greater chance of coming to a state where they are ready to listen and listen to each other, negotiate and honor agreements, and take into account each other’s interests and needs. Therefore, often in a psychologist’s office, in his personal space, you can find boxing gloves, a karate belt, or (in a very feminine version) a heavy frying pan.
