| Sumario: | "It is striking that, amid a voluminous literature on psychodynamic psychotherapy, so little attention has been paid to the narcissistic vulnerabilities of midlife and the manner in which they enter into the psychotherapy of midlife patients. In When the Bubble Bursts, Eda Goldstein remedies this glaring lacuna with a study of individuals who come to midlife with heightened narcissistic vulnerabilities that complicate the navigation of this stage of life. In working with these midlife patients, Goldstein adopts a self-psychological frame of reference. It is a matter, she finds again and again, of understanding how current stressors frustrate healthy self needs and trigger narcissistic vulnerabilities Self-psychologically informed treatment, which, in Goldstein's pragmatic purview, draws on supportive, psychodynamic, and psychoanalytic modalities, enables patients to find new ways of affirming their sense of self."--Jacket |
