Sinopsis

This book presents contemporary psychoanalytic perspectives, ideas, concepts and socio-psychological implications of living in the modern world, both within the therapy room and outside. Since its inception, and as with any conceptual framework of human perception and motivation that frames how the world is experienced, psychoanalysis has evolved in both theory and application to now featuring a pluralism of models as opposed to a single, unitary theory. The chapters are diverse in the conceptualisation of various psychoanalytic topics such as the therapeutic process, psychoanalytic supervision, the social and personal unconscious, sexuality and perversion, reproduction, counter-transference, the guilt-ridden patient, and loss and trauma. The chapters cover a broad range of theoretical approaches to the human experience and the world at large, from object relations theories to the modern day notion of self and self-realisation, to intersubjectivity and the real relationship between supervision and relational theories in understanding difficult moments in therapy and beyond. This book is a must read, suitable for both students and practitioners of psychoanalysis.

Acerca del autor

I am a graduate of Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa, where I obtained my undergraduate and post-graduate degrees in Psychology, including a PhD degree in 1998. I am a Professor of Psychology at the Department of Psychology, University of Johannesburg, South Africa. I am also a registered Psychologist and licensed to practice as a psychotherapist. I have been an academic for more than two decades, teaching, supervising and conducting research in the area of relational psychoanalysis, contemporary psychoanalytic theory and Self Psychology. I also teach Group Therapy and Existential Psychotherapy. I have published in numerous peer-reviewed journals as well as written several chapters in academic books. I have recently written on the subject of Race in psychoanalysis, The psychology of prejudice, and The real relationship in psychoanalytic psychotherapy supervision. I am working on linking The myth of Sisyphus to Nietzsche's notion of the Eternal Return of the same in an exploration of transference, and The links between psychoanalysis, phenomenology and the psychobiography. My research has been presented at more than 30 international conferences and I have been an invited keynote address speaker at several international psychotherapy conferences. I am actively involved in the development of psychotherapy in Africa, and in this regard, I am the elected Vice-President of the World Council for Psychotherapy (WCP) (African Chapter).
