	Psychoanalysis - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
		Psychoanalysis is a family of psychological theories and methods which claim to elucidate unconscious relations in a systematic way through an associative process.
		Psychoanalysis as a collection of clinical theories was recast as a theory of interpretation and development with a focus on understanding how the varieties of nonconscious dispositions and actions influence a person's life in the form of transference and resistance.
		A related early criticism of psychoanalysis was that its theories were based on little quantitative and experimental research, and instead relied almost exclusively on the clinical case study method.

	Psychoanalysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Psychoanalysis was first devised in Vienna in the 1890s by Sigmund Freud, a neurologist interested in finding an effective treatment for patients with neurotic or hysterical symptoms.
		Psychoanalysis is believed to be most useful in dealing with ingrained problems of intimacy and relationship and for those problems in which established patterns of life are problematic.
		An early and important criticism of psychoanalysis was that its theories were based on little quantitative and experimental research, and instead relied almost exclusively on the clinical case study method.

	Paul Wachtel, 'Re-examining the Relational Paradigm: What's New? What's Good?' (1/3)
		For relational analysts and therapists in particular, the result is that their ability to creatively follow through on their most progressive and innovative ideas can be constrained and that potentially counterproductive clinical habits are retained that, on close examination, are inconsistent with those very ideas.
		Psychoanalysis was, for many years, a therapeutic approach so thoroughly rooted in this new (and strangely different) kind of conversation that its virtual denial of the conversational heart of the enterprise was almost a defining feature of what it meant to be psychoanalytic at all.
		As a consequence, the relational critique of Freud’s epistemology has tended not to be accompanied by as sharp [radical] a critique of his theories and, especially, his techniques.

		Volume 2, Relational Psychoanalysis: The Emergence of a Tradition, brings together key papers of the recent past that exemplify the continuing growth and refinement of the relational sensibility.
		Each paper is accompanied by an introduction in which the editors place it in its historical context and by a new afterward in which the author suggests subsequent developments in his or her thinking.
		Aron and Anderson's Relational Perspectives on the Body will be such a book: a masterful blend of essays on mind/body wholeness and its inseparability from the self/other wholeness that links the intersubjective world of patient and analyst in a shared psychosomatic reality.

		Psychoanalysis reacted to this shift slowly and only after it had discovered that something had been changing in the very nature of psychopathological phenomena and psychotherapeutic processes.
		After reviewing some current aspects in relational psychoanalysis’ dealings with the problem of multiplicity of selves, I shall try to document that many of those were foreseen in an almost forgotten paper by Heinz Kohut, which he himself left split off, unedited and unpublished.
		Relational theorists (such as Aron, Bromberg, and Mitchell, to name but a few) take it for a fact that we are not talking merely about “(cognitive) representations of self; rather, they are each versions, complete functional units with a belief system, affective organization, agentic intentionality, and developmental history” (Mitchell, 2000, p.

	A BRIEF HISTORY OF PSYCHOANALYTIC THOUGHT: FREUD AND HIS PSYCHOANALYTIC INNOVATORS
		Psychoanalysis began as a one-person psychological field of inquiry, then expanded into a two-person analytical focus, and finally, a multi-person field of inquiry.
		The analyst was viewed as that important past figure and he was related to, in accordance with the patient’s previous patterns of interaction.
		Intersubjective psychoanalysis is a relatively new theoretical model that is gaining prominence in psychoanalytic academia and practice.

		Transactional psychoanalysis consists of applying the principles of the Roman school of psychodynamic transactional analysis to the individual psychotherapy setting.
		This article proposes that Berne's focus on the transactional nature of psychotherapy foreshadowed later developments in psychoanalysis that have come to be known as "relational psychoanalysis." Relational psychoanalysis, which introduced the interpersonal and intersubjective experience into traditional psychoanalysis, brought psychoanalysis into a more interactive framework.
		Object relations theory highlights the importance of the objects in a child's life and how the child learns from his or her relationships with those objects.

	PGI - It’s Not Easy to Be a Field Theorist: Commentary on "Cartesian and Post-Cartesian Trends in Relational ...
		They assert that relational psychoanalytic theories of mutual recognition seem to require that patients recognize the subjectivity of the analyst as necessary for their development, and that becomes a form of moralizing toward the patient.
		I think their argument is with some relational therapists’ tendencies toward confronting a patient, or aiming at a particular outcome for a patient, in the name of a different kind of “intersubjectivity” than that proposed by Stolorow, Orange and Atwood.
		Given our shared commitment to creating relational conditions that are conducive to the elaboration of our patients’ experiential worlds, one realm of experience that would serve our patients well is if they could establish a confident capacity that they can “find” an “other,” and therefore themselves, through meeting the otherness of others.

		Although familiar with the relational literature in psychoanalysis, it hadn’t occurred to me to bring it all together in group: my interest in Bion, my interest in group trauma work and my knowledge of relational psychoanalysis.
		After a time they began to talk much more openly about the behaviors and events that had led to their being sent to prison in the first place and their traumatic experiences both inside and outside of prison, while I began to emotionally “be with them’ in a way that moved me beyond words.

		Coparticipant Psychoanalysis brings crucial insights to clinical theory and practice and is an invaluable resource for psychoanalysts and therapists, as well as students and practitioners of psychology, psychiatry, and social work.
		John Fiscalini is a training and supervising analyst and faculty member at the William Alanson White Institute of Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis, and Psychology; director of clinical training at the Manhattan Institute for Psychoanalysis; and an associate clinical professor at the New York University postdoctoral program in psychoanalysis.

		The distinguished group of scholars and clinicians assembled here are largely preoccupied with tracing the theoretical underpinnings of relational psychoanalysis, its divergence from traditional psychoanalytic paradigms, implications for clinical reform and therapeutic practice, and its intersection with alternative psychoanalytic approaches that are co-extensive with the relational turn.
		Because relational and intersubjective perspectives have not been properly critiqued from within their own schools of discourse, many of the contributors assembled here subject advocates of the American Middle School to a thorough critique of their theoretical assumptions, limitations, and practices.
		These selected original texts represent three cardinal movements that span the history of modern psychology: psychoanalysis, with its emphasis on the dynamic unconscious; behaviorism, with its emphasis on learning and the environment; and existential phenomenology, with its emphasis on the ontological dimensions of being and the lived experience.

		These perspectives include a contemporary self psychology influenced by post-Kohutian theoretical contributions, a distinctly relational perspective, and the perspective followed by a group of New York based psychoanalysts, influenced by object and interpersonal theories, who have developed their own brand of "relational" theory.
		APSP recognized, of course, that there are varying views about the relational matrix among "relational" theorists just as there is among self psychological theorists.
		She offered ways in which the analyst might be able to draw upon aspects of both self-psychological and relational theories.

	Gestalt!, vol 6; no 2 - A Gestalt Therapy Critique of Relational Psychoanalysis
		In this review of the article "Cartesian and Post-Cartesian Trends in Relational Psychoanalysis," by Stolorow, Orange and Atwood (2001), I shall briefly discuss some of the similarites between the Gestalt Therapy and Intersubjectivity field theoretical concepts and summarize some of the authors' criticisms of the relational analysts for Cartesian remnants in their thinking.
		The internalized object relations are seen as dynamically active structures that behave at times like drives, at times like demons--autonomously and with a life of their own.
		And if a client began to talk, for example, about the abused little girl inside of her and I refused to accept her subjective reality of a sequestered little girl that is relatively cut-off from contact with others, she would probably feel rejected and shamed, thereby replicating past abuse.
