Description
Donald Kalsched explores the mystical and spiritual aspects of trauma in this thought-provoking book. Through clinical vignettes and therapeutic dialogue, Kalsched reveals how depth psychotherapy can access non-ordinary reality, where daimonic powers reside. This integrated psycho-spiritual approach to trauma and its treatment delves into themes such as the lost soul-child in dreams, the psychotherapy process, and the role of childhood innocence in spiritual life. Kalsched draws on various sources, including Dante's Inferno and St. Exupéry's The Little Prince, to illustrate the complexities of the human experience. He also discusses the importance of implicit processes in the relational field and recent discoveries in body-based affective neuroscience in making trauma treatment more effective. This book offers a unique perspective on trauma and its treatment, one that combines psychoanalytic insights with spiritual and mythological themes.
