The Herald Dream : An Approach to the Initial Dream in Psychotherapy
London, Karnac, (2006). orig.wrappers. 23x15cm, xi,158 pp, PAPERBACK.. ISBN: 1855754509. Minor rubbing. VG.
¶ This monograph focuses on a systematic approach to dream interpretation and the unique importance of the initial dream. The first dream reported in a psychoanalytic therapy poignantly encapsulates the major issues that the patient brings to the treatment. These dreams herald the trajectory of the treatment and can be interpreted in the service of psychodynamic diagnosis and prognosis. The book achieves its aims by melding aspects of Jungian dream analysis, with neo-Freudian analytic thought, current neurobiological concepts, and Buddhist psychology, to yield a rich and powerful understanding of how dreams symbolize the multifaceted aspects of the psyche. Multiple examples of initial dreams are discussed in detail with suggestions for how they can inform the analytic stance & serve as objects for analysis over the course of a treatment. The role of dream analysis in group supervision of psychotherapists is also discussed"- publisher's description. [Contents: Dreams: theory and practice : 1. Introduction -- 2. Dreams in theory -- 3.
