Contemporary views on one of therapy's oldest challenges
|
Offering a range of contemporary views on one of therapy's oldest challenges, "Erotic Transference and Countertransference" presents stimulating material and perspectives that seek to address the concerns of many a therapist about just how connected to patients/clients one can be and how to manage patients/clients affectionate feelings for their therapist. Citing a range of influences from Freud, Jung, Klien Lacan, self psychology and object relations, each contributor puts forward a well considered arguement that shows that there is no macro-intervention that can have universal application. Addressing what for many is a diifucult area with a refreshing candour, "Erotic Transference and Countertransference" is a welcome addition to any therapist's library. Other books of related appeal include "Psychotherapy: An Erotic Relationship" by David Mann and "Deepening Intimacy: Using the Erotic Transference and Countertransference" by Florence Rosiello.
