Abstract:
<p> This thesis is an alchemical hermeneutic exploration of shame from the depth psychological perspective of a complex. Literature is reviewed related to a definition of the shame complex and understanding its etiology and phenomenological and psychological effects. Through a depth psychological analysis of the author&rsquo;s personal experience, which includes developing and living with a shame complex, the path toward healing shame is realized as the ability to find the courage to uncover and disclose a personal narrative in the presence of an empathetic analyst, who had the competence to c

Abstract:
Shame is a self-conscious emotion that characterizes the life of all individuals. It arises when a moral violation occurs and the person is judged negatively by others for a way of being that does not correspond to the standards of society.

Abstract:
In this thesis I argue that shame is valuable because it contributes to the moral life by promoting coherence. I start by developing and defending a conception of shame. On my conception, rational shame involves a negative self-assessment, in which I am both the assessor and the object of assessment, and in which the standard of assessment is my own. I then develop a notion of coherence, and apply it to the relationship between values, and the relationship between values and actions. I also tie the notion of coherence to what I call “the moral life”. I then discuss two ways in which shame can

Abstract:
This thesis is a critical study of the theme of shame in Shakespeare. The first chapter defines the senses in which shame is used. Chapter Two analyses the workings of shame in pre-renaissance literature. The argument sets aside the increasingly discredited shame-culture versus guilt-culture antithesis still often applied to classical and Christian Europe; then classical and Christian shame are compared. Chapter Three focuses on shame in the English Renaissance, with illustrations from Spenser, Marlowe, Jonson, and Milton. Attention is also paid to the cultural context, for instance, to the sh

Abstract:
<p> Internalized shame, a construct that assesses the extent to which an individual identifies with the experience of feeling deeply flawed, unworthy, and defective (Cook, 1987, 1991, 2001), has been associated with negative clinical outcomes in substance use disorders (SUDs; Harper, 2011). Tolerance for shame-related distress, or shame tolerance, has been associated with other forms of psychopathology (Schoenleber &amp; Berenbaum, 2010, 2012), and may serve to moderate the relationship between internalized shame and SUD treatment outcomes.

Over the past two decades persuasive arguments have been made to expand the role of emotion in clinical psychology. Research within the basic affective sciences suggests a number of ways that current psychological treatments may benefit from interventions explicitly targeting emotions, particularly for resistant forms of adult psychopathology. Research in this area has found that the inability to regulate feelings of shame may be a significant risk factor in the onset and recurrence of major depression and other psychological disorders.

Shame is an emotion that features widely in a range of mental health difficulties. Feelings of shame are frequently elicited in the therapeutic encounter.

Abstract:
Feelings of shame can be difficult to manage. However, there has been limited research attention to the contextual factors which may make this particularly difficult, partly because shame has often been conceptualised as primarily an intrapsychic phenomenon. Alongside this, investigations of managing potentially shaming identities, often conceptualised as `stigma management', have generally not focused on emotion. To bridge this gap in the literature I draw on theoretical resources such as symbolic interactionism and social constructionism to conceptualise experiences of shame as constructed w
