Detached, alienated people, many of them functioning with a
pathologically developed false self, barely navigate life's
challenges. Our cultural emphasis on autonomy and separateness has
led to a retreat from valuing interpersonal, communal dependence
and has greatly contributed to a rise in the number of people whose
suffering is often expressed in addictions and personality
disorders. Using actual patient material including diaries and
letters, Karen Walant's Creating the Capacity for Attachment shows
how "immersive moments" in therapy--moments of complete
understanding between patient and therapist--are powerful enough to
dislodge the alienated, detached self from its hiding place and
enable the individual to begin incorporating his or her inner core
into his or her external, social self.
