Marina Breccia: Counter-Time, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book explores how trauma affects our experience of time, how that experience may not be linear, and how we may experience "counter-time" - a disruption or arrest of time's flow and a perpetual return to the time of trauma.

Counter-Time explores this phenomenon in clinical practice and in examples from literature and history, including mass trauma such as genocide. Survivors of trauma can be helped to move beyond their experience by drawing on their own cultural resources, helping them to use "counter-time" as a means of release instead of a repeated traumatic symptom.

With rich clinical detail and clear, accessible writing, this book is essential reading for all psychoanalysts and psychotherapists working with trauma.
