This book explores the roots of borderline states of mind in early
relational trauma and shows how it is possible, and necessary, to
visit 'the darkest places' in order to work through these traumas.
This is despite the fact that re-experiencing such traumas is
unbearable for the patient and they naturally want to enlist the
analyst in ensuring that they will never be experienced again. This
is the backdrop for the extreme pressures and roles that are
constellated in the analysis that can lead to impasse or breakdown
of the analytic relationship. The author explores how these areas
can be negotiated safely and that, whilst drawing heavily on recent
developments in attachment, relational, trauma and infant
development theory, an analytic attitude needs to be maintained in
order to integrate these experiences and allow the individual to
feel, finally, accepted and whole. The book builds on Freud's views
of repetition compulsion and re-enactment and develops Jung's
concept of the traumatic complex.
