It is a thorough examination of the psychoanalytic model of the mind and clinical technique  integrating theory and practice. In this book  Dr. Lasky covers the psychoanalytic model of mental functioning  including developmental  object relational  and conflict theories. He provides an examination of the rationale beyond the psychoanalytic clinical method and  in a series of case studies  shows the reader how an analysis is actually conducted. He gives illustrations of both classical analytic techniques and the modifications of technique that are often necessary in treating character-disordered patients. Lasky shows the rich complexity of mental  functioning and the subtle complexities of Freudian clinical theory  and technique. Simplified approaches are quite appealing to some experienced analysts as well as to many beginning analytic candidates  and simplified approaches become even more attractive as Freudian psychoanalysis threatens to increase  not decrease  in complexity with each passing year. However  an appreciation of the true complexity of things is an enhancement rather than a burden to the analyst at work. Lasky argues that some of our most brilliant conceptualizers are impossibly difficult to read. Often some of our best material is inaccessible to all but the most dedicated and persistent reader. This book conveys the complexity of the Freudian model in a clear and readily understandable manner.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44954738917429,"sku":"ByrdShop_0876685653","price":63.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780876685655.jpg?v=1770282350","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-dynamics-of-development-and-the-therapeutic-process","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
