This chapter considers the possible role of psychoanalysis in developing a theory of how oppression may be internalised by children during interactions with clinicians, social workers and researchers. How can the clinical encounter become a space for reflection? Can oppressive dynamics within the clinical encounter be altered? Psychoanalysis has often been viewed with suspicion within disability studies: this chapter explores what it might mean to become an ‘ambivalent advocate’ of psychoanalysis as a disability activist.
