Taylor & Francis Being with the Body in Depth Psychology
Book SynopsisFeaturing a foreword by Donald Kalsched, this important book examines the integration of the subjectively experienced body in the practice of depth psychology.Barbara Holifield draws from philosophical perspectives, neuroscientific and infant research, developmental theory, and trauma studies to offer a comprehensive overview of embodiment within a relationally based psychoanalytic approach. Clinical vignettes demonstrate the critical value of working with the bodily-felt dimension of implicit relational memory and emphasize how bodily-felt sense facilitates access to feelings. The mythopoetic reality revealed in depth psychotherapeutic process weaves all of this into a tapestry of personal meaning. Here the body serves as a portal to the numinousââhealing that goes far beyond the relief of symptoms to a renewed sense of aliveness.This book offers guiding principles for psychotherapists and clinicians of all levels to engage the bodily basis of experience in the

Taylor & Francis Ltd A Jungian Perspective on the TherapistPatient
Book SynopsisWithin this book, Ruth Netzer explores the archetypal components of therapist-patient relations in cinema from the perspective of Jungian archetypal symbolism, and within the context of myth and ritual.Film is a medium that is attracted to the extremes of this specific relationship, depicting the collapse of the accepted boundaries of therapy; though on the other hand, cinema also loves the fantasy of therapy as intimacy. Through the medium of film, and employing examples from over 45 well-known films, the author analyzes the successes and failures of therapists within film, and reviews the concepts of transference and counter-transference and their therapeutic and redemptive powers, in contrast to their potential for destruction and exploitation within the context of a patient-therapist relationship.This book will be a fascinating read for Jungian analysts, psychologists, psychiatrists, and therapists with an interest in the link between cinema and therapy, as well as

Taylor & Francis Ltd Archetypal and Cultural Perspectives on the
Book SynopsisIn this era of intense migration, the topic of the foreigner is of paramount importance. Joanne Wieland-Burston examines the question of the foreign and foreigner from multiple perspectives and explores how Jung and Freud were more interested in the wide phenomenon of the foreign in the unconscious rather than in their own personal lives. She analyses cultural approaches to the archetype of the foreigner throughout history using literary, cultural (as seen in mythological texts and fairy tales) and psychological references, and interprets the scapegoating of foreign minorities as a projection of the monster onto the foreigner. The book includes contemporary perspectives on immigration and displacement throughout, from analysing patient case material, the archetypal needs of people who join terrorist groups, feelings of alienation, and the work of Palestinian-German psychologist Ahmad Mansour. Throughout this personal and highly topical study, Wieland-Burston questions and Trade Review"Joanne Wieland-Burston offers us a book that is quite clear, profound, and excellently documented, on our relationship with the foreigner within us, around us, and afar.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Roots of Jewish Consciousness Volume One
Book SynopsisThe Roots of Jewish Consciousness, Volume One: Revelation and Apocalypse is the first volume, fully annotated, of a major, previously unpublished, two-part work by Erich Neumann (19051960). It was written between 1934 and 1940, after Neumann, then a young philosopher and physician and freshly trained as a disciple of Jung, fled Berlin to settle in Tel Aviv. He finished the second volume of this work at the end of World War II. Although he never published either volume, he kept them the rest of his life.The challenge of Jewish survival frames Neumann's work existentially. This survival, he insists, must be psychological and spiritual as much as physical. In Volume One, Revelation and Apocalypse, he argues that modern Jews must relearn what ancient Jews once understood but lost during the Babylonian Exile: that is, the individual capacity to meet the sacred directly, to receive revelation, and to prophesy. Neumann interprets scriptural and intertestamentaTrade Review"'The Jewish problem and my work on it ended for me precisely at a time when it became conspicuous in the world in an indescribably ghastly way' (Neumann in 1945, at the end of World War II). I was the living witness of this ghastliness when I met Neumann in 1948. Being a survivor of Auschwitz with my whole family murdered, my god had only one face, and I was in dire need of help. Help came in the compassionate form of Erich Neumann, whose god had two faces.It is an extraordinary experience to trace the development of Neumann’s early thoughts from revelation to the actualization of messianism in this remarkable book. Many cornerstones of Neumann’s opus are already in his Roots of Jewish Consciousness: the covenant between God and his people; God holding the opposites together; the ego–Self axis; the transcendent function; secondary personalization; and foremost, the emphasis on a strong ego as the conditio sine qua non for moral man. In this thoughtful and profound publication, Neumann shows himself to be the independent thinker he was, vis-à-vis the first generation of Jungians who were fascinated by the unconscious. At a meeting between Erich Neumann and Gershom Scholem in 1959, in Neumann’s flat in Tel Aviv, he asked me to just listen to their conversation. What a conversation! The atmosphere in the room was charged, with both men evidently in the grip of strong emotions. They had a long and rather loud discussion. Would Neumann have changed something in his writing if destiny had given him more time?" - Dvora Kutzinski, Jungian analyst; friend and supervisee of Dr. Erich Neumann, Tel Aviv, Israel"Unsurprisingly, Volume One of this previously unpublished work of Erich Neumann delivers exactly what the title states in clear, and scholarly, labored depth and breadth. For me, a Jewish reader, it stirs my Jewish soul and roots. But it is much more than a history and analysis of the roots of Jewish consciousness. To those familiar with Jungian theory, this work puts additional meat on the structural bones of some of Jung’s theories, most particularly his theory of the collective unconscious. And beyond that, for those who will give a reflective reading of this profound work, it does throw light in evolutionary terms on the eruption of the shadow and psychic chaos in today’s world. Neumann’s analyses of the historical and psychic influence not only his Jewish roots, but those of the spirit of the times as reflected in Gnosticism and Christianity as well as a radical view of the responsibility of the Jewish individual in today’s world as the carrier of those roots as compared with Judaism itself. I can think of no other contemporary work on the evolution of the Jewish psyche and its footprint in the world than this work." - Jerome S. Bernstein, M.A.P.C., NCPsyA, Jungian analyst"Neumann was more than a psychologist, as he amply proves here. The volume spans centuries and delves deeply into human psychology, ancient and modern culture, and offers special wisdom regarding evolving history. Though the subject matter is ponderous and at times dark, there is an infusion of positivity and hope that can perhaps best be seen in Neumann’s watercolor artworks, depicting in a bold hue and childlike realism Moses’ vision of the Holy Land and Joseph’s dream. Scholars and thoughtful individuals, as well as students of history, Jewish culture, and psychology, will doubtless seize the opportunity to read this most recently recovered treatise by one of the twentieth century’s boldest and most innovative thinkers." - Barbara Bamberger Scott, The US Review of BooksTable of ContentsList of Illustrations.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Art Therapy in the Early Years
Book SynopsisArt therapy with infants, toddlers and their families is an exciting and developing area of practice. With contributions from Australia, the United Kingdom and Spain, Art Therapy in the Early Years has an international flavour. The authors describe clinical art psychotherapy practice with children under five and their families in settings that include children in care, mental health clinics, paediatric wards, pre-schools, and early intervention programs. Divided into three sections, Art Therapy in the Early Years presents different clinical environments in which art psychotherapy with this client group is found: individual art therapy; group art therapy; parent-child dyad and family art therapy. The book proposes that within these different contexts, the adaptive possibilities inherent in art psychotherapy provide opportunities for therapeutic growth for young children aTrade Review‘Based on a wealth of experience, this is an excellent and lively contribution to the art therapy literature. Theoretically informed and clinically focussed, a compelling portrait emerges of the very sensitive work of psychoanalytically informed practice with very young children and their families. Illustrated with pictures and deeply moving case examples, an international group of specialists reveals the intense involvement of the therapists and their clients. This accessible book will be indispensible reading for art therapists, counsellors, and psychotherapists, especially those working with children and their parents.’ - Professor Joy Schaverien PhD, Jungian analyst, art psychotherapist and author of Boarding School Syndrome: The Psychological Trauma of the Privileged Child‘This is a landmark text for art therapy practitioners, clinicians, researchers and students engaged in working with the very young. The increasing significance and relevance of art psychotherapy to address mental health needs of infants, toddlers and their families is beautifully demonstrated in this new text. I am pleased to read chapters by several fellow Australians, therapists whose work locates art therapy in the mainstream of child and family services in this country. This is evidence of the advance of the profession world-wide into the suite of clinical options and practices which lend flexibility and adaptability to the needs of our small people and their families.’ - Patricia Fenner PhD, Department of Public Health, La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia‘This groundbreaking collection of papers will touch everyone who reads it, through the therapists’ tender description and thoughtful analysis of their work with some of the most basic and most powerful of human emotions: love, loss, rivalry and the struggle with the inexpressible. One of the many valuable aspects of this collection is its continuous focus on the art as well as the therapy, the materials, the art works, and the interactions which produce them. This collection will be found relevant and enjoyable by a wide readership of teachers, early years practitioners, health visitors, family support workers, psychologists and everyone who is concerned with the emotional wellbeing and resilience of very young children and their families.’ - Dr Julian Grenier, Headteacher of Sheringham Nursery School and Children’s Centre, National Teaching School, Newham, East London, National Leader of Education and former National Chair of Early Education'This book is a welcome and important exploration of art psychotherapy with very young children. Art therapy has its roots in the creative interpersonal relationship between the infant and their primary carer, and this book productively opens up this 'in between' space, extending theory and practice in the process. It offers a wealth of insights not only for clinicians working in the sector but for all art therapists engaged with the infantile within their clients. No doubt it will be a rich resource for professionals and students alike.' - Jonathan Isserow, Convener, MA Art Psychotherapy Programme, University of Roehampton, London'This book provides insights and narratives for those who work with young children and their families offering research, theory and practice, illustrating how young children make meaning of their world through thoughtful art experiences. The book invites readers to better understand how therapeutic interventions may be restorative and healing when young children are invited to engage with art materials, within a supportive setting, attending to their individual developmental needs. A book early childhood educators will no doubt come to value and refer to as it may shape and inform their own personal approach and practice.' - Cathy Milwidsky, Director of Early Learning, Moriah CollegeTable of ContentsList of illustrations Foreword Acknowledgements Introduction Section 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Jung and Sex
Book SynopsisC. G. Jung, despite not being widely known for his views on sexuality or the treatment of sexual issues, made extensive contributions to understanding the complexities of this field throughout his life. In Jung and Sex, Edward Santana makes the case that reclaiming this knowledge can address substantial problems with current treatments and support many who struggle with sexual issues. This thorough exploration of Jung's approach to sexual issues presents a wide-ranging new look at his work and adds contemporary perspectives for helping those suffering with sexual difficulties. The book calls for an important bridging of clinical perspectives to address the contemporary challenges of complex sexual issues and brings attention to a large body of Jung's work on human sexuality, ranging from pioneering thoughts on sexual expressions of the soul to understanding ways to treat sexual symptoms. Jung and Sex provides a comprehensive analysis of Jung's views on, aTrade Review"While glaringly obvious in our culture, sex and sexuality are still only dimly understood: it is everywhere visible, subject to moralism, studied by psychologists, used and abused in advertising, confusing to adolescents, frightening to some, suffered by many in symptomatic forms. But Edward Santana covers the ground – from struggles between culture and instinct to pharmaceuticals and technology – in this brilliant study of Jung’s work, contemporary psychological treatment, and the importance of recognizing sexual life as a deep, exquisite expression of the human soul." – Lyn Cowan, Ph.D., Jungian analyst"This book should be required reading for any psychotherapist who treats people suffering from sexual difficulties. It will fill a void in the Jungian literature on sexuality. Dr. Santana's stress on the spiritual dimensions of sexuality is a necessary corrective to purely behavioral approaches." - Lionel Corbett, M.D., Jungian Analyst"Edward Santana’s Jung and Sex effectively answers the question: what would a nineteenth century born psychologist have to contribute to the field of sexual studies and therapeutic treatment, especially in an era dominated by behaviorism and cognitive psychologies? Jung not only repositions human sexuality through the biological and social into the realm of the spiritual but affirms that a sexual problem can only be solved by love, that is, by an engagement with the meaning dimension. This book asks the reader to approach the mystery of sex with a willingness to submit to psyche, a Greek word which translates as Soul." - James Hollis, Ph.D., is a Jungian analyst in Washington, D.C., and author of numerous books, most recently, What Matters Most: Living a More Considered Life, and Hauntings: Dispelling the Ghosts Who Run Our Lives."While glaringly obvious in our culture, sex and sexuality are still only dimly understood: it is everywhere visible, subject to moralism, studied by psychologists, used and abused in advertising, confusing to adolescents, frightening to some, suffered by many in symptomatic forms.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Wounded Healer
Book SynopsisIn the years since the publication of The Wounded Healer, countertransference has become a central consideration in the analytic process. David Sedgwick's work was ground-breaking in tackling this difficult topic from a Jungian perspective and demonstrating how countertransference can be used in positive ways. Sedgwick's extended study of the process candidly presents the analyst's struggles and shows how the analyst is, as Jung said, as much in the analysis as the patient. The book extends Jung's prescient work on countertransference to create a dynamic view of the analyst-patient interaction, stressing the importance of the analyst's own woundedness and how this may be used in conjunction with the patient's own. Sedgwick begins with a discussion of the need and justification for a Jungian approach to countertransference, then reviews Jungian theories and presents detailed illustrations of cases showing the complexity of transference-countertransference processes in bTrade Review‘The Wounded Healer really is a ‘classic’! The descriptions in depth of what the patient means to the analyst are as fresh, dynamic, moving and instructive now as they were twenty five years ago. Sedgwick, as much as anyone, is responsible for making sure that Jungian analysis is recognised as a pioneering strand in the emergence of psychotherapy as a relational enterprise. The book will be of interest to all clinicians, whether Jungian or not.’ - Professor Andrew Samuels, co-editor of Relational Psychotherapy, Psychoanalysis and Counselling: Appraisals and Reappraisals (Routledge, 2014).Table of ContentsIntroduction to the Classic Edition.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Perversion: A Jungian Approach
Book SynopsisTheoretical understanding of perversion is neglected in analytical psychology, and narrowly developed in psychoanalysis, where it traditionally refers to sexual perversion. Etymological exploration of the word "perversion", including its use in religious, moral, sociological and legal contexts, reveals a wider meaning than that adopted in psychoanalysis. The aim of the author is to revise the psychoanalytic model through the introduction of Jungian concepts that extend the understanding of perversion beyond the bounds of sexuality to a more general relational context.By describing the development of psychoanalytic thinking on perversion in detail, the author is able to highlight the central differences between the Freudian and Jungian interpretive traditions and to explain why Jungian ideas on perversion have remained underdeveloped, leading to the absence of a unique or available Jungian contribution to the theory of perversion. Jungian concepts, together with some from outside the psychoanalytic domain, are combined with psychoanalytic concepts to create an integrated formulation in which perversion is presented as a response to early trauma, with intrapsychic deception enacted relationally in the outside world through vengeful behaviour, that is not necessarily sexual, but is addictive and symptomatic of a defensive psychic structure that establishes and perpetuates self-deception. The formulation is presented in stages with illustrations drawn from three biographies, exemplifying sexual perversion, bodily perversion, and emotional or cognitive perversion.Trade Review'In a welcome development of her book, Dr Ross here describes in detail the developments in her thoughtful understanding of 'perversion' as it can be understood in a contemporary Jungian analytic context.'- Hazel Robinson, Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP) Analyst and Editor of the SAP Monograph Series'The publication of this book is most welcome and it deserves to be hailed as a substantial contribution not only to this subject but also to the applicability of comparative psychoanalytic theorisation. The book addresses an important field that seems to have been clouded by cliches rather than conceptual clarity, and this is what the author introduces with incisive perception, competence and creativity. By releasing the term from its asphyxiating sexual connotation, the book develops an original framework within which to comprehend the wider phenomena of perversion. Using innovative methodology, it grounds the conceptual analysis onto real life biographies. Through a carefully crafted extension of the Jungian theories, the author succeeds in developing a new perspective to view afresh phenomena that, especially in our times, require sound understanding.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Labyrinth of Possibility: A Therapeutic
Book SynopsisWhat exactly happens between the patient and the analyst when therapy is effective? Profoundly unsatisfied by the orthodox but vague explanation that "the therapeutic factor is the relationship", the author Giorgio Tricarico explores a hypothesis that is able to comprehend many different methods of both therapy and analysis. Starting from his own clinical experience, Tricarico runs into the image of the classical labyrinth (Daidalon) and a deeper analysis of what this symbol implies, revealing it as a symbol of "Possibility". The worldwide presence in different cultures and ages of the labyrinth as such a symbol may indeed point to the existence of an element beyond it, whose activation in the relationship between patient and analyst could be a fundamental factor for psychic change. Different methods of cure, seen through the lenses of the hypothesis expressed, may share a common factor of transformation. With the help of clinical cases, the concept of "impossibility" in analysis is also explored. Situations in which every change seems to be impossible compel us to widen our concept of possibility and to return to its original meaning, far away from the omnipotent one the Western world blindly keeps repeating.Trade Review'This is an optimistic book by an original new voice on the psychoanalytic scene. Giorgio Tricarico adds his voice to those of us who, like Jung, emphasise the prospective, teleological elements in the human psyche, our inherent longings for a full realisation of the potentials latent in the self, emergent around the constellating impact of important relationships in the interpersonal environment. By embracing the psyche's potential for self-realisation and the life-quickening effect of relationship on the activation of our full possibilities as humans, Giorgio Tricarico places himself squarely in the tradition of some of my favourite writers and mentors, including Jung.'- Donald E.
