Abstract
The Western modern therapeutic model is grounded on social constructions of power relations and draws on religious legacies, such as the journey in quest of salvation. The journey is considered the most significant transformation that people can undergo in their lifetime. It is comprised of two significant elements: the confession and the professional discourse possessed by the therapist. Both the professional and the service-user are in danger of internalizing the power structures embedded in these practices and in losing their voice. The major challenge facing the professional and the service-user is that of creating an alternative discourse that can dismantle the professional discourse from the power structure in which it is embedded and portray alternative realities and multiple possible narratives. The aim of this study was to present an alternative reality in which professionals and clients can find their co-dance and evolve simultaneously, creating a new and relevant language that enables them to be active and mutually thrive. Practices of minority and nomadic consciousness are considered as suitable alternative therapeutic practices that resist the power structure of the Western late-modern therapeutic model.
