Linking, Alliances, and Shared Space: Groups and the Psychoanalyst

Synopsis:

Group psychoanalysis (or group psychoanalytic psychotherapy) is a clinical practice that continues to be very active and plays an important role in the application of psychoanalysis, in the field of mental health and in the training of psychotherapists. René Kaës gives us a very complete overview of the history of this practice and of its recent advances. In this way, he allows us to benefit from his great competence in this area in which he has played a key role in France for more than forty years. From life-like clinical information he offers us a theoretical reflection, which also takes into account the tradition of which he has been one of the craftsmen.
