Mollon argues that a broader \"taxonomy\" of disturbances of self is required and goes on to develop his own thesis that the patients in psychotherapy or analysis are often unconsciously seeking a needed development-enhancing response from the therapist.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe therapist' s task is to recognize what this need is and to articulate it to the patient. In this way, the hitherto lonely and unreached parts of the personality can be contacted amd integrated. In exploring these issues, many aspects of psycho-analytic process and technique are re-examined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eThe Self.  \u003cp\u003eNarcissism.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Narcissistic Effects.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNarcissistic personality.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA Comprehensive Model of Narcissistic Disturbance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eClinical exploration of The Model.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Healing Process.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSelf-psychology and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Psychology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Psychology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Psychology%20%5BJM%5D%22\"\u003eJM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52460654297368,"sku":"9781870332637","price":55.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781870332637.jpg?v=1785456941","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-fragile-self-the-structure-of-narcissistic-disturbance-paperback-softback-9781870332637","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
