Through extended clinical vignettes, including therapeutic dialogue and dreams, he shows how depth psychotherapy with trauma's survivors can open both analytic partners to \"another world\" of non-ordinary reality in which daimonic powers reside, both light and dark. This mytho-poetic world, he suggests, is not simply a defensive product of our struggle with the harsh realities of living as Freud suggested, but is an everlasting fact of human experience--a mystery that is often at the very center of the healing process, and yet at other times, strangely resists it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith these \"two worlds\" in focus, Kalsched explores a variety of themes as he builds, chapter by chapter, an integrated psycho-spiritual approach to trauma and its treatment including: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eimages of the lost soul-child in dreams and how this \"child\" represents an essential core of aliveness that is both protected and persecuted by the psyche's defenses;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eDante's guided descent into the Inferno of Hell as a paradigm for the psychotherapy process and its inevitable struggle with self-destructive energies;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003echildhood innocence and its central role in a person's spiritual life seen through the story of St. Exupéry's \u003cem\u003eThe Little Prince\u003c\/em\u003e;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003ehow clinical attention to implicit processes in the relational field, as well as discoveries in body-based affective neuroscience are making trauma treatment more effective;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe life of C.G.
