About this book
This collection of articles by Dr. Helena Hargaden makes the case for the evolution of relational theory from a scientific and poetic knowledge base, expressing the different forms of human suffering.
Journal articles, book chapters, and speeches spanning the course of 22 years trace the evolution of the author's own mind alongside the evolution of relational theory. Drawing on her knowledge of science and poetry, Dr. Hargaden examines case studies tracing the relational process which involves the vulnerability of both therapist and client as change happens in them through complex relatedness. The author makes broad in depth theoretical links with humanistic and psychoanalytic perspectives which reveal the richness inherent in the term 'Relational'. Themes explored include intersubjectivity, the use of the analyst's subjectivity, mutuality, therapy as a two-way street, dissociation, enactment, the use of 'the third', race, gender and sexuality.
Blending approachable language and themes with highly intellectual ideas, this text will be of high value and intrigue to a wide range of readers, particularly transactional analysts and relational psychotherapists.
