Interpersonal psychoanalytic theory states that people can achieve
insight into how, through interactions with people, they became who
they are, and how they can change patterns of living that limit
further satisfaction. People are born with a blueprint for growth
and development that includes self-respect, joy, expansion of
experiences, creativity, and ever widening and deepening human
interactions. With some exceptions, the mental health profession in
the United States is dictated by insurance and pharmaceutical
companies, focusing primarily on symptom reduction and social
conformity. These goals are inadequate. The goal, as elucidated in
this book, is maximizing one's human potential. Interpersonal
Psychoanalytic Theory for the 21st Century: Evolving Self is
written for practitioners in all areas of mental health and
pedagogy, whether or not they are psychotherapists or clinicians.
It is also intended for anyone interested in understanding
themselves and other people. Additionally, in the spirit of Harry
Stack Sullivan, developer of the theory, this volume addresses some
pressing issues relevant to interpersonal theory and practice in
the twenty-first century social/economic/political milieu.
