Psychiatry Rehumanized

The critique extends beyond one method: therapy that treats the mind as machinery risks missing the person behind the symptoms.

A humanized approach does not reject biology or psychology. It adds something essential: the dimension of meaning, conscience, and responsibility.

The clinician is not merely a technician repairing a device. The clinician is in relationship with a person facing a life problem.

The point is not ideology. It is outcome: without a view of the person as responsible, therapy may calm a symptom while leaving the vacuum untouched.
