Time and Timelessness: The Life Enhancing Gift of Psychoanalysis

 

ABSTRACT

Using personal experience of mourning and its resolution, the author addresses the absence of an experimental model of the psychoanalytic relationship. This would include concepts of a person or self as an agency with capacities of feeling alive and close in a state of development. The model would also include past present moments which are part of a repetition where past present moments were imbedded with trauma to be avoided.
