A psychoanalytic memoir of unimaginable impacts and survival. At the heart of such catastrophe, Faith lies dormant, awaiting rebirth of psyche and soul. Damaged and damaging bonds finally housed, finding psyche-soul deformations transformed, the shattered and shattering impacts of childhood trauma infused with life-giving capacity. As written by Lord Byron and articulated by Daws - Heres to the Children of the Second Birth. - Dr. Michael Eigen, psychoanalyst; author, Bits of Psyche: Selected Seminars by Michael Eigen
This courageously intimate and unflinchingly honest page-turner, co-created by Dr. Richard Raubolt (analyst) and Dr. Rebecca Klott (analysand), offers readers an extraordinary glimpse into the profound heartbreak of severe, complex childhood trauma, the messiness of human suffering, and the intricacies of the healing process. Sustained by Raubolts faith in the transformative power of a co-created we, Rebecca, even in her darkest moments, finds solace in the knowledge that she is no longer alone. The rawness of Rebeccas heartrending experiences and the incisiveness of Raubolts penetrating insights are woven together with such tenderness and love that this becomes a story not just about therapy but about the shared humanity of two brave souls journeying in tandem from lost to found. - Martha Stark, MD, award-winning author of nine books on the integration of psychoanalytic theory with clinical practice, including Modes of Therapeutic Action, Working with Resistance, and Relentless Hope
This memoir pushes the boundaries of modern psychoanalytic treatment in a way that deepens what Freud coined as the talking cure. In these pages one finds a combination of talking and writing that blends emotional depths with theoretical moorings, while a beautiful, painful story unfolds. - Keri S.
