Matters of Life and Death: Psychoanalytic Reflections
ISBN: 9781855758018 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The author's focus in this book is upon the intrapsychic vicissitudes of what it means to be truly alive and how death accompanies us at each step of our life's journey. He attempts to show that, psychologically-speaking, death is always present in life and life in death. He discovers what is emotionally central to being alive and how death and awareness of death--conscious or unconscious--silently color our subjective experience. The fundamental thrust of these socio-clinical meditations is to enhance appreciation of aspects of life that have been inoptimally addressed in psychoanalytic...

ISBN: 9781442247819 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this elegantly written book, eight distinguished psychoanalysts address the ubiquitous phenomenon of guilt. They describe the childhood experiences that form the bedrock of this emotion and delineate various types of guilt, including pre-oedipal guilt, oedipal guilt, survivor guilt, separation guilt, induced guilt, and so on. Noting that guilt, by itself, is neither good nor bad, these master clinicians highlight the adverse (e.g. self-punishment, masochism, irritability) and potentially positive (e.g. reparation, helpfulness towards others) outcomes of guilt. They critically assess...

He has deliberately limited his exploration five specific areas in order to be able to explore them thoroughly: initial assessment; boundaries; money; disruptions; and suicidal crises.
Akhtar's more than three decades of clinical experience has taught him that most problems in the course of dynamic psychotherapy involve these areas; therefore their proper understanding and management is key to productive therapeutic work. Each chapter of this compact book tackles one of these areas in detail, outlining not... In this volume, Akhtar addresses the intricacies of in-depth psychotherapy.

Psychoanalytic Listening: Methods, Limits, and Innovations
ISBN: 9781780491455 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Joseph Breuer's celebrated patient, Anna O., designated psychoanalysis to be a -talking cure-. She was correct insofar as psychoanalysis does place verbal exchange at the center stage. However, this focus upon the patient's and therapist's speaking activities diverts attention from how the two parties listen to each other. Psychoanalysis is a listening and a talking cure. Both elements are integral to clinical work. Listening with no talking can only go so far. Talking without listening can mislead and harm. And yet, the listening end of the equation has received short shrift in...

Betrayal: Developmental, Literary, and Clinical Realms
ISBN: 9780367102043 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Betrayal underlies all psychic trauma, whether sexual abuse or profound neglect, violence or treachery, extramarital affair or embezzlement. When we betray others, we violate their confidence in us. When others betray us, they pierce the veil of our innocent reliance. Betraying and feeling betrayed are ubiquitous to the scenarios of trauma and yet surprisingly neglected as a topic of specific attention by psychoanalysis.This book fills this gap. The first part deals with developmental aspects and notes that while the experience of betrayal might be ubiquitous in childhood, its lack of...

Does God Help?: Developmental and Clinical Aspects of Religious Belief
ISBN: 9780765703194 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 366 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. At long last there is a book that brings the issue of religious belief into the consulting room. Deliberately avoiding the one debate about whether or not God exists, the editors have marshaled papers that take seriously the fact that patients are affected by their religious convictions. Experts on Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, and Islam refract the clinical process through the prisms of these religions, and commentaries on their papers are offered by distinguished psychoanalysts who provide vigorous challenges and supplementary visions. Therapists will be informed by reading this book and...

Across the lifespan we may experience moments of sublime intimacy, suffocating closeness, comfortable solitude, and intolerable distance or closeness.
