Over two decades, on two continents, Robert J. Neborsky, MD, and Josette ten Have-de Labije, PsyD, have struggled to define and perfect the psychotherapeutic methods of Habib Davanloo, MD.

Both in individual practice and partnered study, they have worked carefully to master the theory and application of the clinician's revolutionary approach. These companion volumes represent their best attempts to translate Davanloo's clinical genius into language that students and researchers can use to help psychoneurotic patients who suffer from what the authors describe as ''attachment trauma.'' Dr Neborsky goes on to use case examples from his practice to illustrate the way the unconscious mind operates to create symptoms and relationship difficulties.

Readers will discover that Neborsky and ten Have-de Labije have greatly advanced the science and teaching of Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy in these collections, which also serve as a supplement to their textbook Roadmap to the Unconscious (Karnac, 2010).
