Abstract:

Discourses of Helping Professions brings together cutting-edge research on
professional discourses from both traditional helping contexts such as
doctor-patient interaction or psychotherapy and more recent helping contexts
such as executive coaching. Unlike workplace, professional and institutional
discourse – by now well established fields in linguistic research – discourses
of helping professions represent an innovative concept in its orientation to a
common communicative goal: solving patients’ and clients’ physical,
psychological, emotional, professional or managerial problems via a particular
helping discourse. The book sets out to uncover differences, similarities and
interferences in how professionals and those seeking help interactively tackle
this communicative goal. In its focus on professional helping contexts and its
inter-professional perspective, the current book is a primer, intended to
spark off more interdisciplinary and (applied) research on helping discourses,
a socio-cultural phenomenon that is of growing importance in our post-modern
society. As such, it is of great relevance for discourse researchers and
discourse practitioners, caretakers and social scientists of all shades as
well as for everybody interested in helping professions.
