The Mattering Map: Multiplicity, Metaphor and Morphing in Contextual Theory and Practice

Abstract

This article describes and elaborates upon the theoretical model of the Mattering Map, initially introduced in Engendered Lives: A New Psychology of Women's Experience (Kaschak, 1992). This model presents the principles of contextual feminist therapy in a manner that honors the complexity, multiplicity and motion or morphng of the energetic field of mattering. The mattering map is more intimately related to 21st century physics than to 19th and 20th centuries reductionist and fragmenting models of assessment or treatment. Its use in a therapeutic milieu is considered with particular guidelines for assessment and treatment.
