Jeanne’s presentation

“Fragile patient – doing better – but still some struggles”

The process will show how we (finally due to psychic integration work and graded work) can work together, monitoring split off processes and via bracing and recaps reach to breakthrough at high rise in complex feelings toward the therapist. And we will see that UTA brings an unexpected link – which leads to anxiety (panic attack) and defenses that are trying to block the guilt and understanding.
