Divine Therapy: Love, Mysticism and Psychoanalysis
No Customer Reviews
There is mounting evidence that strong personal relationships and spiritual beliefs contribute to our well-being. Divine Therapy explores the healing illumination of oneness with another, achieved through love, religious and mystical experience. Janet Sayers, author of Mothering Psychoanalysis and Freudian Tales, approaches the topic by analysing the pioneering writings of William James, Sigmund Freud, Carl Gustav Jung, Simone Weil, and of post-Freudians, Erich Kristeva. Using these studies of eminent psychologists and psychotherapists, Sayers explores the insights of love, religion and mystical experience to describe how they might inspire therapy. Richly illustrated with love letters, biographical details, clinical and other examples, Divine Therapy is written to appeal to all mental health specialists, therapists and those intrigued by the enigmas of love, religion and psychotherapy.
