Winter Meets Its Death

Abstract

This article addresses the interplay of analytic and spiritual transformation by way of a clinical narrative. Essentially, the goal of analytic transformation as well as Protestant Christian transformation is to become fully alive. These two fields would also suggest that both the forging of pathology and the process of healthy liberation and development of one's psyche and spirit happen via significant relationships. This story attempts to demonstrate those principles of life change paradoxically even in the face of grief and death.
