The book,Psychology of The Self (1978), and the movement of the Psychology of the Self are criticized as having degenerated into a kind of cult that basically rejects all former and contemporary psychoanalytic contributions. The end product is that many patients are incorrectly diagnosed as narcissistic character disorders and then treated by the same method, emphasizing the patients need for an empathic selfobject. Even the cures reported seem to put the patient in a schizoid and narcissistic position in which object relations that involve real attachments to another person are minimized. Instead of changing people from narcissistic to objectrelated, the reverse appears to occur. The Psychology of the Self: A Casebook was written with the collaboration of Heinz Kohut, M.D., edited by Arnold Goldberg, M.D. Journal of Contemporary Psychotherapy Look Inside Share this content on Facebook Share this content on Twitter Share this content on LinkedIn Other actions Export citations Register for Journal Updates About This Journal Reprints and Permissions
