A commonly encountered experience of both analyst and analysand is that of the void. Because the experience of the void is so unsettling we attempt to defend ourselves against it. Rather, that hidden behind the "clouds of unknowing" that surround the void, lie endless possibilities for growth and transformation and an increasingly strong connection with the objective other; whether we see that "other" as God or the Self or as previously unexperienced parts of ourselves.

About this product

Product Information

A commonly encountered experience of both analyst and analysand is that of the void. It is spoken about at different stages of therapy and refers to experiences that have different origins. Sometimes the experience of the void is around a relatively limited aspect of the psyche but at other times the void seems much more global and threatens to engulf the entire personality; the whole individual psyche then seems threatened by the possibility of dissolution into nothingness.
