The Dying Patient in Psychotherapy: Desire, Dreams and individuation
Joy Schaverien
In this book Joy Schaverien raises questions regarding the meaning of love and death in psychotherapy. The multiple layers of an erotic transference reveal the developmental path from infancy to adult sexual intimacy, engaging the analyst as well as the patient in a process of psychological transformation. A series of dreams, rich in symbolic imagery, traces the emotional situation as awareness of death approaches. Imaginative, personal, theoretical and practical, it shows, through detailed attention to the countertransference, how adherence to the analytic frame facilitates individuation.
