Topos Matki Polki kontra Mama Zaopiekowana – analiza postów poświęconych zdrowiu psychicznemu współczesnych matek

Paulina Czarnek-Wnuk ; Agnieszka Barczyk-Sitkowska

Abstract

This article aims to explore how psychologist Aleksandra Sileńska, known online as Mom Therapist, addresses the mental health of mothers in her Facebook posts. Through content analysis and rhetorical tools, including the categories of topos and the triad of ethos, pathos, and logos, the study examines Sileńska’s communication strategies. The findings reveal that she predominantly employs pathos and ethos in her posts. Additionally, her promotion of the Cared-for Mom model contrasts sharply with the traditional Polish Mother topos, which often overlooks the mental health of mothers.
