Toward a Unified Psychoanalytic Theory: Foundation in a Revised and Expanded Ego Psychology

The presentation is based on the recently published book entitled Toward a Unified Psychoanalytic Theory: Foundation in a Revised and Expanded Ego Psychology. The main themes of the presentation are: demonstrating that revised and expanded ego psychotherapy constitutes the strongest foundation for (1) a unified psychoanalytic theory; (2) is best able to integrate relevant findings from other disciplines; (3) provides a more accurate account of the nature of psychopathology; (4) serves to better identify the nature of positive therapeutic outcome.
