Event Description

Abstract:
This mid-year conference, presented by our Viennese colleagues, explores the significance and impact of therapists’ selfobject needs in the therapeutic process. Drawing on personal clinical experience and grounded in the theoretical contributions of Kohut, Stolorow, Atwood, and Jaenicke, we examine how the therapist’s subjectivity and narcissistic needs inevitably participate in and co-construct the therapeutic relationship.
