He was drawn first towards hypnotherapy, then to psychoanalysis, as a more sensitive, productive and far-reaching method of exploring patients' problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this book Stewart draws deeply on his own clinical experience to focus on changes in the patient's experience of inner space, and to record the growth of his own understanding of the patient's experience and how this can change. Beginning with a vivid account of the role of collusion in the myth of Jocasta and Oedipus, he goes on to a theoretical discussion of thinking, dreams, inner space and the hypnotic state, in the context of extensive clinical experience. The second part of the book centres on practical clinical issues and problems of technique, tackling in particular the role of transference interpretations, other agents of change, and the problems encountered in benign and malignant types of regression.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe wealth of clinical material and the author's informality and openness in presenting his experiences of working with very disturbed patients will be of immense practical value to other practitioners. \u003cem\u003ePsychic Experience and Problems of Technique\u003c\/em\u003e will help psychoanalysts and psychotherapists to understand the nature of clinical problems which are often encountered but seldom acknowledged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Harold Stewart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415059755\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415059756\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/05\/1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.18h x 6.22w x 0.59d","brand":"Harold Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44227514269951,"sku":"9780415059756","price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a6000341-a81c-48b5-8d4d-e053aa5e0650.jpg?v=1692809106","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/psychic-experience-and-problems-of-harold-stewart-9780415059756","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
