Abstract

Richard M. Billow's book, "Selected Papers on Psychoanalysis and Group Process," provides a comprehensive overview of Billow's work as an individual and group therapist. The book integrates Bionian psychoanalytic thinking with contemporary relational approaches, emphasizing the importance of the therapist's participation and emotional co-participation in therapy. Billow explores concepts such as container-contained, emotional working through, and the creation of shared meaning in both individual and group therapy. The book offers a unique and enriching perspective on therapy, highlighting the therapist's role in facilitating growth and transformation. [Extracted from the article]
