Sammanfattning
This article discusses philosophical dialogues, and how these can promote recovery from
mental illness. A good example of such dialogues exists in the exercise of philosophical practice: a
counselling service where a topic or problem becomes the subject of philosophical reflection. Key
ethical principles are: respect for the other's autonomy, equality, and that we all face the world with
the same basic conditions. Through an analysis of opportunities, values and key existential
concepts, users of mental health services can find meaning in life despite illness or disorder.
