Dealing With The Therapist's Vulnerability To Depression

Más información sobre el libro

The working life of every therapist can be negatively affected in varying degrees by a patient's reactive or endogenous depression or by symptoms such as futility, shame or guilt. In this book, Sheldon Heath describes how depressed patients can put their depression into others through projective identification. Therapists can introject these depressed feelings or psychic parts and, in turn, become depressed.
