Rebecca A. Brown

    1 de enero de 1948

    La diversa obra de Rebecca Brown explora la experiencia humana a través de géneros y formatos poco convencionales. Sus trabajos abarcan colecciones de ensayos y cuentos, una autobiografía ficcionalizada, un bestiario moderno, memorias disfrazadas de diccionario médico, un libreto para una ópera de danza, una obra de teatro y diversas formas de fantasía. Brown navega por los límites entre la realidad y la ficción, y su escritura se caracteriza por una profunda introspección y un poderoso sentido de la metáfora. Su enfoque único crea un mundo literario que es a la vez fascinante y estimulante.

    • The authors propose to investigate the meaning and purpose of boundaries within and around the therapeutic experience. A boundary is more than a simple line delineating one space from another; it is an entity with properties that demand a response if they are to be negotiated. Boundaries circumscribe a space that can be viewed objectively, or experienced subjectively, as a 'container'. For the uninitiated, this therapeutic container can be difficult to penetrate. Even health professionals such as GPs and psychiatrists often do not know how to access psychotherapy organisations and their referral networks. Also, real constraints on the availability of counselling and psychotherapy within the National Health Service, and the cost of private sector services, may prohibit access to the help being sought. The book explores aspects such as the gradual evolution of therapeutic boundaries in psychodynamic work, boundary development in infancy and childhood, the role of the therapist's mind and the therapeutic setting, confidentiality and issues such as money and time.
