The Analysis of a Pre-Adolescent Girl with Primal Scene Fantasies

Pages 327-354 | Published online: 22 Nov 2016
 

Notes

Daphne’s first rescue fantasy appeared before she revealed the zoo story. This implies that first we needed to analyze her anger toward her father for not being comforting when she was lost, and that until we worked on the seduction indirectly and the “in your face” reaction of the four-year-old, she could not acknowledge that she deserved to be rescued. “Getting lost in the zoo” represented her oedipal peek-a-boo, seductive fantasy of engaging father, and expressed the instinctualized defense against feeling “lost” in the relationship.
