Trauma and the Supernatural in Psychotherapy: Working with the Curse Position in Clinical Practice - Paperback

by Alex Monk (Author)

This book explores how traumatic experience interacts with unconscious phantasy based in folklore, the supernatural and the occult. It also considers the historically conflicted relationship between psychoanalysis and the supernatural and proposes treatment perspectives which are not implicitly dependent upon a materialist paradigm.
