Through the meticulous exploration of a singular case study, this book intricately weaves together the lived experiences of a clinician in training alongside those of their teenage patient, as they collaboratively navigate and triumph over the profound impacts of early relational trauma on the formation of the self. By the meticulousness with which they analyze, the book's authors enhance readers' comprehension of attachment disorders and their clinical manifestations, while simultaneously offering a profoundly human perspective on the interactions between patient and clinician. Elegantly blending poetic prose with a clinical account, this book invites readers to embark on a journey alongside the clinician, to engage in thought and emotion in sync with his subjective experiences, and to delve into psychoanalytic and systems theory as a means to comprehend clinical relationships that are seldom written about with such vulnerability. It is a tale of resilience and growth, both poignant and enlightening.

By granting form to the indomitable spirit of both patient and clinician, their collective strength through the tears of change, this book expounds upon the behavioral consequences and treatment of psychopathologies associated with early relational trauma. In this way, the book emerges as an indispensable resource for all psychoanalysts and psychotherapists engaged in the care of traumatized children and adolescents.
