Summary
In Holding and Psychoanalysis: A Relational Perspective , Joyce Slochower brings a contemporary relational framework to bear on Winnicott's notion of the analytic holding environment.& She presents a fresh, thought-provoking, and clinically useful integration of Winnicott's seminal insights with contemporary relational and feminist/psychoanalytic contributions.& Seeking to broaden the concept of holding beyond work with severely regressed patients, she addresses holding in a variety of clinical contexts and focuses especially on holding processes in relation to issues of dependence, self-involvement, and hate.& She also considers clinical work with patients on the edge - patients who seem deperately to need a holding experience that remains paradoxically elusive.
