By viewing psychoanalysis through the lens of embodiment, Brothers and Sletvold suggest a shift away from traditional concept-based theory and offer new ways to understand traumatic experiences, to describe the therapeutic exchange and to enhance the supervisory process.
This book offers groundbreaking insights into relational theory, exploring the patient’s and the analyst’s longings to know, be known, and not known in psychoanalytic relationships, and the embodied nature of the healing process.
