The Inner World of Trauma: D. Kalsched Acceptable (see photos:):
$36.85
The book is a seminal text in Jungian psychology and trauma studies. It explores how the mind\'s interior world of dream and fantasy images reacts to unbearable life experiences. Kalsched demonstrates how a psychological \"inner self-care system\" steps in to preserve the personal spirit after trauma. However, these primitive, archetypal defenses can become overprotective, malevolent, and self-destructive, ultimately isolating the traumatized individual from real-world relationships.The work effectively bridges analytical psychology (Jungian theory) with contemporary object relations theory and dissociation theory, drawing on detailed clinical material, dreams, and myths to explain the treatment of trauma survivors.
