Bringing alive the relevance and value of psychoanalytic concepts
in supporting the core role of professionals working directly in
services for people who are older, this fascinating new book will
also be of interest to analysts and psychotherapists interested in
old age and the application of psychoanalytic thinking in the
public sector. Davenhill shares an approach that has been helpful
to her as a clinical psychologist working within the NHS and as a
psychoanalyst working with people coming for consultation and
intensive psychoanalytic treatment in the latter part of the
lifespan. It will become evident to the reader that while each
chapter is different and stands in its own right, there are certain
psychoanalytic concepts which appear and reappear again and again.
Specifically these are the concepts of transference, counter
transference and projective identification, which are the
theoretical and clinical bedrock on which psychoanalytic
psychotherapy rests. Each chapter offers a different lens to the
reader that will broaden and deepen understanding of such core
concepts and their straightforward applicability in strengthening
the quality of treatment offered both within old age services and
psychological therapy services for people who are older in the
public sector.
