Awakening the Dreamer - Clinical Journeys

Philip Bromberg continues his illuminating explorations into dissociation and clinical process. Among our most gifted clinical writers, he is unique in his ability to record peripheral variations in relatedness - those subtle, split-second changes that capture the powerful workings of dissociation and chart the changing self-states that analyst and patient bring to the moment. Laced with his characteristic honesty, humor, and thoughtfulness, these essays elegantly attest to the mind''s reliance on dissociation, in both normal and pathological variants, in the ongoing effort to maintain self-organization. Like Standing in the Spaces before it, Awakening the Dreamer is destined to become a permanent part of the literature on therapeutic process and change.
