Stories can explore complicated ideas and bring shared experiences
to life. Footage of the Knicks' upset win in the NBA finals
triggers a traumatic memory of family tragedy. A young girl starts
bullying her best friend after her big sister goes off to sleepaway
camp. An adolescent works through her feelings of anger at her
father over her parents' divorce after discovering his infidelity.
A patient's ugly shoes remind an analyst of her own childhood
scars. A daughter recognizes her Holocaust-survivor father's
resilience as she comes to terms with his vulnerability after a
life-altering accident. Bringing together these narratives and many
more, When the Garden Isn't Eden reveals how psychoanalysis sheds
light on the troubles of everyday life. Through poignant and
sometimes painful stories from their personal and professional
lives, three practicing psychoanalysts demonstrate the richness of
psychodynamic thinking. Each chapter offers an illustrative and
powerful personal vignette followed by an analytical reflection
that explicates key psychodynamic concepts, showing how these ideas
inform and deepen our understanding of what makes us human.
Blending storytelling and psychotherapy, When the Garden Isn't Eden
makes psychodynamic theory vivid and accessible to students,
teachers, clinicians, and anyone curious about how therapists work
and think.
