Climate, Psychology and Change
As humanity faces a climate emergency, mental health professionals have entered uncharted territory. There is noblueprint for how the psycho-social profession is supposed to meet the fact that the continuation of human and more thanhuman life on Earth is endangered by Western lifestyles. Nobody can figure out on their own how therapists should respondin a time when the familiar no longer provides all the answers.Bringing together the voices of senior psychotherapists from around the world, this volume reflects on the ways in which thepsychotherapy profession needs to widen its thinking and practice in order to be able to respond to the complex, interconnectedchallenges of our time.In these pages, a wide range of contributors spanning the globe from India, to the US, Europe, Australia and Africa, explorethe new and emergent field of climate psychology. Taking diverse perspectives, they reflect on aspects of theory andpractice that may be entangled with a paradigm that dissociates us from our life support. Because climate changerepresents a new kind of phenomenon, a superordinate form of trauma that is triggering all other forms of unresolved,personal, inter-generational and cultural traumas, we are effectively given no option but to fundamentally re-arrange ourperception of what it means to be human in an inter-connected, living world.This book explores the theory and practice of climate aware psychological thinking while presenting emerging models ofinterventions in and outside of the consulting room. It invites the reader to examine their own responses and contributionstowards a collaborative exploration of what the mental health professions have to offer at this threshold moment forhumanity's future. The book builds on conversation, trans-contextual learning and the bridges between disciplines. The needfor decolonisation of the mental health profession is explored, as well as notions of environmental justice, biospheric traumaand anthropocentrism.
