Description

The Digital Age is on the couch. Working today, it is essential that clinicians understand the world we live in. The transition from an industrial economy to an information economy impacts not just the external structure of society and commerce, but also the internal psychic economies of our brains and, inevitably, how clinicians conceptualise the analytic setting in which they practice as therapists and analysts. The Digital Age on the Couch seeks to understand more about how new technologies interact with the prerogatives of an individual’s internal world, how they may alter psychic structure itself in fundamental ways and the implications this may have for the individual’s functioning and for the operation of society. This book attempts, from the perspective of a working clinician, to make some sense of this. The impact of mediation via technology and the consequent disintermediation of the body represent central themes throughout, as they impact on the experience of embodiment, on the ‘work of desire’ and on the way new media influences psychoanalytic practice. New media offer opportunities for increasing accessibility to mental health care, including psychoanalytic interventions. However, this requires a sophisticated understanding of how to best create and safeguard the analytic setting. Alessandra Lemma here guides the clinician through an exploration of the limitations and risks of mediated psychotherapy, illustrated with clinical examples throughout. The Digital Age on the Couch offers an accessibly written guide to combining existing psychoanalytic theory and practice with the challenges presented by digital media. It will appeal to psychoanalysts, psychoanalytic psychotherapists and counsellors. Review "Whenever one reads Alessandra Lemma one can always expect to be confronted with original and unexpected viewpoints. She is both a classical and post-modern psychoanalyst who, with clinical acumen and theoretical rigor, never abandons the mainstream of psychoanalysis. Professor Lemma explores contemporary questions with the depth and breadth of direct clinical experience. This latest offering examines psychoanalysis in times of techno-culture - an essential read for all clinicians as we grapple with this new reality, which is not only in the everday lives of all of us, but is also very present in our clinical practices."-Vincenzo Bonaminio, Adjunct Professor, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Sapienza, University of Rome, Training and Supervising Analyst of the Italian Psychoanalytic Society and of the IPA, Director, "Winnicott Centre" of Rome. "Alessandra Lemma has a way of identifying and capturing the core of modern culture. We cannot understand our patients, the people around us or indeed ourselves without understanding better how we have individually and socially adapted to the digital world. This is the essential journey that Lemma takes us on, in an inspiring, beautifully written and moving voyage of exploration. This book is an essential guide for every clinician working with every patient."-Peter Fonagy, Professor of Contemporary Psychoanalysis and Developmental Science, UCL. About the Author Alessandra Lemma is a Fellow of the British Psychoanalytical Society and Consultant - Clinical Psychologist at the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families. She is Honorary Professor of Psychological Therapies at the School of Health and Human Sciences at Essex University and Visiting Professor, Psychoanalysis Unit, University College London where she is also the Clinical Director of the Psychological Interventions Research Centre. She is Visiting Professor, Istituto Winnicott, Sapienza University of Rome and 'Centro Winnicot', Rome.
