An extraordinary depiction of one analyst's efforts to receive and
respond to the vivid impressions of her patients raw and sometimes
even unmentalized experiences as they are highlighted in the
transference-countertransference connection. Mitrani attempts to
feel, suffer, mentally transform, and, finally, verbally construct
for and with the patient possible meanings for those immediate
versions of lifes earliest experiences as they are re-enacted in
the therapeutic relationship. She uses insights from this
therapeutic work to contribute to the metapsychology of British and
American object relations as well as to the psychoanalytic theory
of technique. In these eleven essays, Dr Mitrani masterfully
integrates the work of Klein, Winnicott, Bion and Tustin as she
leads us on an expedition through primitive emotional territories.
She clears the way toward detecting and understanding the survival
function of certain pathological manoeuvres deployed by patients
when confronted by unthinkable anxieties. In her vivid accounts of
numerous clinical cases, she provides and demonstrates the tools
needed to effect a transformation of unmentalized experiences
within the context of the therapeutic relationship.
