Looking forwards and backwards

Psychoanal Study Child. 2003:58:172-86. doi: 10.1080/00797308.2003.11800718.

Abstract

A study group examines ways of clinically integrating the developmental process with the psychoanalytic process. The intentions of the group are described along with the degree to which its aims are realized. The capacity to bring together the expectations of the future and the pathogenic impact upon the past proves to be a challenging endeavor for the child clinician. Some obstacles are confronted and a variety of ways of overcoming them are regarded.
