Facets of Psychoanalytic Listening
Jeffrey L. Eaton
In this book, Jeffrey Eaton delves into the intricate process of psychoanalytic listening, offering a profound exploration of the analyst’s sensibility and its role in understanding complex mental states. Drawing on the ideas of W. R. Bion and other influential thinkers, Eaton provides a rich tapestry of insights into the art of listening and its transformative potential in clinical practice.
Facets of Psychoanalytic Listening takes readers on a journey from foundational concepts, such as listening as an improbable conversation, to advanced explorations of work with autism, primitive mental states, and the development of a “felt-self.” Each chapter introduces unique perspectives, including the use of clinical material, theoretical frameworks and practical tools like session data organisation. The book not only deepens the reader’s understanding of psychoanalytic theory but equips them with practical approaches to navigate challenging therapeutic encounters. This book is an essential resource for psychoanalysts and psychodynamic psychotherapists seeking to refine their clinical practice.
It will also appeal to students and professionals engaged in psychoanalytic training programmes, offering valuable insights into the nuanced and often elusive process of listening with depth, intuition and faith.
