Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building upon the theoretical work of Ferenczi, Fairbairn, and Berliner, the author describes four basic relational patterns in the lives of abused children: the reliving of abusive relationships, either as victim or as perpetrator; identification with the aggressor; masochistic self-blame; and the seeking of object contact though sex or violence. The interweaving of these patterns creates what Dr. Prior calls 'relational dilemmas.' According to him, these four basic relational patterns are held in place by the child's profound fear of falling into primitive states of unrelatedness and consequent annihilation anxiety. For example, the abused child believes that victimization by or identification with the bad object, no matter how horrible that may be, is preferable to the psychic disintegration that complete nonrelatedness creates. Dilemmas of this nature tear apart the child's psyche, leading to unstable and tormented models of self, other, and relationship. Object Relations in Severe Trauma provides sensitive understanding of childhood traumatization and a conceptual and technical framework for the treatment of patients—both children and adults—who have suffered from it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Object relations theory has caused a fundamental reorientation of psychodynamic thought. In Object Relations Theory and Practice, Dr. David E. Scharff acclimates readers to the language and culture of this therapeutic perspective and provides carefully selected excerpts from seminal theorists as well as explanations of their thinking and clinical experience. He offers readers an unparalleled resource for understanding object relations psychotherapy and theory and applying it to the practice of psychotherapy and psychoanalysis. The book's sequence establishes the centrality of relationships in this theory: the internalization of experience with parents, splitting, projective identification, the role of the relationship between mother and young child in development, and transference and countertransference in the therapeutic action of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. This book will introduce students to the basics, to the widening scope of object relations theory, and to its application to psychoanalysis and individual, group, and family psychotherapy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reason for selecting this research study is because of the increased number of children being exposed to traumatic events, often leading to long-lasting and intense effects that impacts them as adults.Early childhood trauma refers to children under the age of 12 who have experienced physical or sexual abuse, neglect, or witnessed domestic violence. After a child is exposed to trauma, distress is common, yet it may manifest differently given a child's developmental stage, severity and length of trauma, and family situation. Often a child experiencing trauma may slip through the cracks and the issues are not addressed immediately, leading to feelings of isolation and detachment. As quite frequently a child is exposed to more than one traumatic event (repeated abuse or neglect), these children are especially vulnerable to further trauma.The treatment in this study is for these same individuals when they are adults over the age of 18. The purpose of the study is to determine the several therapeutic interventions that are used in treating trauma as it manifests in adults, paying close attention to therapy informed by an object relations approach. Object relations theory is unique since the entire process aims at establishing a therapist–patient relationship that mirrors that of the mother–infant dyad, making it more effective than other therapeutic approaches.
