Integrating an historical perspective on the conceptual and political issues of sexual and physical abuse, together with a very candid, self-observing commentary on their own reactions, the authors richly contextualize their therapeutic interventions and countertransference. Salient treatment dilemmas and contentious sociopolitical issues such as \"false memories\" are examined in an open and thoughtful fashion. An important source of ideas and inspiration for psychotherapists working in this area. -- Frank W. Putnam, M.D., Chief, Dissociative Disorders Group, National Institute of Mental Health\u003cbr\u003eObject Relations Therapy of Physical and Sexual Trauma is a timely and impressive examination of the causes, effects, and therapeutic solutions to trauma. The Scharffs examine the psychoanalytic literature on trauma with meticulous attention and present the psychanalytic view in a lucid and fair-minded manner, all the more impressive given the emotionally intoxicating effect of the subject matter in contemporary America. Their own understanding of trauma and its treatment is presented through the moving accounts of the patients they have treated, giving this book a unique quality: somewhere between Havelock Ellis and Dickens. Not all will agree with their point of view, but if one book could embrace a topic as complex as that of trauma, it is hard to imagine a more lucid, moving, and generous presentation. -- Christopher Bollas, PhD, British Psychoanalytical Society\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1 1.\tThe Traumatic Continuum Chapter 2 2.\tPost-Trauma, Multiplicity, and Childhood Memory Studies Chapter 3 3.\tFreudian and Object Relations Perspectives Chapter 4 4.\tFrom Traumatic Splits in the Self to Multiple Personality Chapter 5 5.\tThe False Memory\/Recovered Memory Debate Chapter 6 6.\tRepression and Dissociation Revisited Chapter 7 7.\tThe Fate of Freud's Seduction Hypothesis Chapter 8 8.\tAn Object Relations Re-Analysis of Dora Chapter 9 9.\tFocal Trauma in an Adult Couple Chapter 10 10.\tRepetition of Trauma in the Transference Chapter 11 11.\tMother-Daughter Incest Chapter 12 12.\tPrimal Scene Inclusion and Father-Daughter Incest Chapter 13 13.\tRecall of Childhood Sexual Trauma and Object Relations Technique Chapter 14 14.\tTrauma in Termination Chapter 15 15.\tPutting It Together: Theory and Technique in Trauma","brand":"Jason Aronson, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037920952663,"sku":"9780765704061","price":46.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780765704061.jpg?v=1750938172","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/object-relations-therapy-of-physical-and-sexual-trauma-9780765704061","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
