In the conference Robert Caper had two lectures and a supervision masterclass. Using Bion’s ideas about containment, group functioning and the fundamental psychologica need for truth, Robert Caper suggested that among all psychological interventions, psychoanalysis not only holds a unique claim for a scientific status, but also is uniqly posed to promote psychological development.
Dr Caper’s eponymous book “Bion and Thoughts Too Deep for Words: Psychanalysis, Suggestion and the Language of the Unconscious” would be of special interest to psychotherapists, psychologists and psychoanalysts who are sensitive towards the link between suggestion and psychoanalysis. The author examines the relationship between unconscious communication, group dynamics, containment and the psychological development in a very original way.
