Publisher's Synopsis
Help your patients get in touch with and eventually master those anxieties, dreads, and infantile wishes that create and sustain their narcissism. This insightful book also guides therapists to be sensitive to those forces within themselves that interfere with their ability to humanely and empathically relate to their patients. Experts analyze case studies and examine current and traditional thought on the basis and expression of narcissism. Love and Narcissism in Psychoanalytic Practice illustrates the differences between healthy and unhealthy narcissism and provides successful interventions for working with patients whose narcissism has become a problem.
