Contemporary antisemitism: Implications for cognitive behavioral therapy
1Department of Psychology, Fordham University, United States.
Abstract:
Recent political movements have been woven into therapy models that include specific ideas considered discriminatory towards Jews. Conceptualized around decolonial models of psychopathology, these frameworks include untested and unassailable assumptions regarding Zionism and Jewish identity that erode the scientific basis of existing evidence-based treatments. We discuss how this movement, with its additional emphasis on activism, promotes a modern form of antisemitism and identity-based discrimination. We conclude with recommendations for addressing this epistemic discrimination.
