Awakening the Dreamer: Clinical Journeys
Autor Philip M. Brombergen Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 sep 2010
Remarcăm în Awakening the Dreamer: Clinical Journeys o rafinare necesară a teoriei relaționale, Philip M. Bromberg continuând aici investigația asupra disocierii începută în volumul de referință Standing in the Spaces. Dacă lucrarea anterioară stabilea bazele teoretice ale „stărilor de sine”, acest nou volum propune o aplicare clinică profundă, transformând dialogul terapeutic într-un spațiu unde „visătorul” pacientului și cel al analistului se întâlnesc pentru a converti realitatea brută în experiență integrată. Cartea extinde cadrul propus de Coming into Mind de Margaret Wilkinson, aducând date noi din neuroștiințe și psihologia cognitivă pentru a valida științific procesele subiective ale minții disociate.
Structura este organizată în trei părți distincte care ghidează cititorul de la fundamentele teoretice ale stărilor de sine, către „coliziunile și negocierile” inevitabile din cabinet, finalizând cu o analiză a siguranței în relația terapeutică. Bromberg nu se limitează la teorie; el explorează situații clinice dificile, precum cea a pacientului „bântuit” de un destin tragic iminent sau a celui traumatizat, unde analistul trebuie să își asume un rol activ, uneori prin auto-revelare, pentru a debloca impasul comunicațional. Această abordare rezonează cu modelul prezentat în Dramatic Dialogue de Galit Atlas, unde multiplele versiuni ale sinelui sunt invitate pe „scena” analitică, însă Bromberg pune un accent mai mare pe onestitatea clinică și pe utilizarea disocierii ca mecanism normal de organizare a sinelui. Lucrarea consolidează temele prezente și în The Shadow of the Tsunami, oferind o perspectivă matură asupra modului în care traumele timpurii modelează capacitatea de relaționare umană.

Despre autor
Philip M. Bromberg este analist formator și supervizor la William Alanson White Institute și profesor clinic de psihologie în cadrul Programului Postdoctoral de Psihoterapie și Psihoanaliză de la New York University. Recunoscut ca unul dintre cei mai talentați scriitori clinici contemporani, Bromberg s-a distins prin abilitatea sa unică de a surprinde variațiile periferice ale relaționării și schimbările de fracțiune de secundă care semnalează disocierea. Opera sa, centrată pe intersubiectivitate și stările de sine, a influențat decisiv psihoanaliza relațională modernă.
Descriere scurtă
For Bromberg, a model of mind premised on the centrality of self-states and dissociation not only offers the optimal lens for comprehending and interpreting clinical data; it also provides maximum leverage for achieving true intersubjective relatedness. And this manner of looking at clinical data offers the best vantage point for integrating psychoanalytic experience with the burgeoning findings of contemporary neuroscience, cognitive and developmental psychology, and attachment research.
Dreams are approached not as texts in need of deciphering but as means of contacting genuine but not yet fully conscious self-states. From here, he explores how the patient's "dreamer" and the analyst's "dreamer" can come together to turn the "real" into the "really real" of mutative therapeutic dialogue. The "difficult," frequently traumatized patient is newly appraised in terms of tensions within the therapeutic dyad. And then there is the "haunted" patient who carries a sense of preordained doom through years of otherwise productive work - until the analyst can finally feel the patient's doom as his or her own.
Laced with Bromberg's characteristic honesty, humor, and thoughtfulness, these essays elegantly attest to the mind's reliance on dissociation, in both normal and pathological variants, in the ongoing effort to maintain self-organization. Awakening the Dreamer, no less than Standing in the Spaces, is destined to become a permanent part of the literature on therapeutic process and change.

Recenzii
“Philip Bromberg's gift is to put himself right 'out there' in the therapeutic encounter without the standard ‘technical’ body armor of psychoanalysis. He emphasizes instead the analyst's genuine involvement both as a source of insight and as a guiding frame for the clinical work. His core ideas relating to dissociation, self disclosure, and enactment are compatible with current research in neuroscience and in the psychology of emotion; indeed they help bridge the gap between psychoanalysis and these fields. In Awakening the Dreamer, Bromberg’s gift of emotional connection extends to his brilliant series of clinical illustrations; they engage readers in a way that enables them to participate in the process and not merely to observe it.” - Wilma Bucci, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Derner Institute, Adelphi University
“This extraordinary and beautiful book explicates how one mind reads another and why the mind-brain is intrinsically relational.” - Leston Havens, M.D., Harvard Medical School
"Bromberg is a gifted clinical writer with a vivid style that conveys with immediacy the analytic encounter. His theoretical exposition is poetical, drawing liberally from literary sources and from his own autobiographical recollections." - Melvin Lansky, Ph.D., International Journal of Psychoanalysis
"Bromberg’s book assembles a whole new way of thinking about what we are doing within the therapeutic relationship - a way that accounts for moment-to-moment affective contact in our attempts to interpret transference and countertransference. It might be even more fun to read Awakening the Dreamer with some colleagues and talk about how it impacts all of you in your clinical work. I guarantee it will be a lively and revealing conversation." - Polly Young-Eisendrath, Ph.D., Psychologist-Psychoanalyst
"Awakening the Dreamer is a stimulating and important book that is fascinating to read. To classically trained clinicians who are open to having their basic assumptions challenged, and who want to learn about the current thinking of a highly experienced relational psychoanalyst, I strongly recommend it." - John L. Frank, Ph.D., Psychoanalytic Quarterly
"Every chapter in the book, each of which stands out on its own as a well-crafted and valuable contribution to the literature, holds the prism of dissociation to the light, reflecting its many facets as they pertain to development, psychopathology, and psychoanalytic treatment. The appeal of this book to clinicians from a multiplicity of theories also lies in Bromberg's encompassing grasp of ideals embraced by stances ranging from interpersonal psychology, self psychology, object relations, intersubjective systems theory, complexity theory, cognitive psychology, and relational perspectives, to theories of trauma and dissociation. It would appear that Bromberg has created a work as multifaceted as the patients he writes about the clinicians for whom he writes. - Nancy VanDerHeide, Ph.D., International Journal of Psychoanalytic Self Psychology, 3(4), 2008
"The import and real pleasure of this volume are threefold: First, it constitutes a truly substantial contribution to both theory of mind and clinical practice in offering a paradigm shift away from the orthodoxy of classical thought without throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Second, Bromberg is one of those rare writers whose expression, wonderfully clear, has something aesthetically magical about it. Third, therefore, is the interest he stimulates in the reader by his own enthusiasm for the creative imagination, whatever the arena. This book consistently attests to "awakening" as a phenomenon as mutually significant to reader and writer as to analysand and analyst." - Lois Oppenhein, Ph.D., Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association, 57(2), 2009
"Bromberg approaches psychoanalytic work in a deeply personal manner that enables him to articulate so compellingly the reasons why it is not only acceptable but also entirely necessary for the analyst to engage personally with the patient. He also creates a personally impactful psychoanalytic reading experience for his readers...Bromberg's enormously influential Standing in the spaces:Essays on clinical process, trauma and dissociation (1996) introduced the psychoanalytic community to the development of his theory that wove together interpersonal psychoanalysis, dissociation and the growing literature on trauma. This volume represents a rich expansion of his approach, drawing on contemporary develpopments in psychoanalysis, attachment theory, neuropsychology, child development, and Bromberg's abiding faith in literature, poetry, and the imagination. Awakening the Dreamer presents a thorough and fully formed statement of Bromberg's original and unique body of work." - Robert Grossmark, Ph.D., Psychoanalytic Psychology, 27 (1), 2010
