Abstract
ABSTRACT The Turkish Netflix series Ethos takes a sensitive look at the quagmire that is alterity, both within and outside of psychotherapy. It offers an opportunity to challenge the rigid narratives we use to cope with the unknown and with otherness, as well as problematizing binaries such as religious/secular, primitive/civilized, client/therapist.

Beginning in the final two decades of the 20th century, the study of gender and sexuality has been revived from a variety of directions: the traditions of feminist scholarship, postclassical and postmodern psychoanalytic theory, developmental research, and cultural studies have all contributed to renewed fascination with those powerfully formative aspects of subjectivity that fall within the rubric of "gender" and "sexuality." Clinicians, for their part, have returned to gender and sexuality with heightened sensitivity to the role of these constructs in the treatment situation, including the richly variegated ways in which assumptions about gender and sexuality enter into our understandings of "normality" and "pathology."
