Summary:

Here are two conversations between Social Constructionist, Sheila McNamee and Narrative Therapist, Peggy Sax, explore the subtlety of ethics in a relational context and nuance of working in a small community setting. 'The field of psychotherapy (as most professional fields) has been fraught with a concern for ethical action where 'ethical action' generally infers 'doing the right thing.' Yet, when we operate within a postmodern sensibility – a world that embraces uncertainty as opposed to certainty, continual change as opposed to stability, and local/historical/cultural contingencies rather than universal laws – answering the question of what counts as ethical practice requires an entirely different focus of attention.'
