Psychoanalysis On and Off the CouchWhy Winnicott? Joel Whitebook, PhD (New York) interviews Jan Abrams, PhD (London)"Instead of the analyst being in a position where they know something about the patient, they are with the patient. As Winnicott says in his late work, if you are a philosopher in your armchair, you have to come out of your armchair and be on the floor with the child playing. I don’t think that one should act that out with an adult patient- however it is that approach to actually being with the patient, listening to the patient’s words, listening to their state of mind without preconceived ideas. That’s almost impossible, but Winnicott says that psy...2023-10-1549 min
