This comprehensive book delves into the diverse psychotherapeutic approaches employed in the treatment of a patient with psychosis, offering a rich and insightful exploration of the subject matter. While the psychotherapeutic treatment of individuals with psychosis is a challenging and often controversial field, due to limited clinical material availability, the author's psychoanalytically oriented therapy approach provides a unique perspective. Due to the private nature of this therapy, it is nearly impossible to observe the actual human interaction and therapeutic process in real time. Despite the rarity of catatonia, there have been numerous attempts to construct a theoretical psychic structure that encompasses a range of psychotic disorders. However, therapists rarely report successful outcomes from long and unconventional treatments.
In order to address this gap, the book presents a fragment of the treatment of a catatonic adolescent, reconstructed as an endeavor to represent the clinically unrepresentable. Following the case report, which also sheds light on the therapist's background and experiences, prominent analytic clinicians from various theoretical orientations offer their interpretations and comments on the material presented. This book offers a fresh perspective on psychoanalytic treatment of psychosis, making it an invaluable resource for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, and clinicians engaged in the treatment of psychosis.
