Presentazione:
L'attività psicoterapeutica nell'anzianoThe psychotherapeutic themes in the oldness are focused on the feeling of solitude, the narcissistic problematic, identity reshuffles, losses and bereavement, as well as the urgency to clarify conflicts from the past, and the fear and death anxiety. M. Klein considers all reactions to loss, bereavement and solitude as a revival of the old depressive position, if the latter hasn’t been elaborated enough during childhood. Both psychotherapeutic and analitic appraoches are possible in the old age according to Klein’s indications.
