"This significantly revised classic book is at the cutting edge of
contemporary psychoanalytic theorizing and at the same time offers
immense practical, accessible help to beginning analysts.
Beautifully written, with vivid case examples that include the
clinician’s ongoing internal reflections, this edition of Holding
and Psychoanalysis should be on the shelf of everyone who seeks to
engage therapeutically with the most damaged, demoralized,
resentful, and fragile among us." - Nancy McWilliams, PhD, ABPP,
Rutgers Graduate School of Applied & Professional Psychology"If you
didn’t read the first edition of Slochower’s Holding and
Psychoanalysis: A Relational Perspective, you missed a classic.
Jump on the opportunity offered by this beautifully written new
edition and fill that gap. And if you already know the book, you’ll
want to read the second edition, because Slochower adds four new
chapters, new emphasis on the co-constructed aspects of holding,
and many gripping new clinical illustrations. Holding and
Psychoanalysis is not just an important psychoanalytic text, it’s a
terrific read." - Donnel Stern, PhD
"Though vitally important when it was first published, Holding and
psychoanalysis remains an indispensable model of complexity,
respect and imagination in psychoanalytic thinking and practice."-
