Description

Separation-individuation theory describes the process of developing self and object representations over the first three years of life. Dr. Bergman sees herself as the necessary other -- the other everyone needs in order to develop his own sense of self, an other particularly vital in the treatment of the severely disturbed. As she reflects on both theoretical and clinical aspects of the development of the sense of self throughout the life cycle, she reveals how the search for continuity and meaning she has shared with her collaborators and her patients has been essential in her work.
