Description

Real People, Real Problems, Real Solutions offers a clear introduction to psychoanalytic practice from a Kleinian perspective. This book explores how modern Kleinian psychoanalysts work with their most challenging patients, using extensive case material to illustrate key concepts. The author examines the original theoretical concepts of Freud and Klein's contributions to psychoanalysis, clarifying and comparing the two approaches in clinical settings. The book also discusses the current state of traditional methods of training at psychoanalytic institutes, highlighting the need for renewal and critical restructuring. This book is a valuable resource for practising and training psychoanalysts and psychotherapists, offering a fresh perspective on what constitutes psychoanalytic therapy and how to work with difficult patients.
