Case Response III
Destructiveness
C.G. Jung postulates the child motif as the central symbol of the unfolding self towards wholeness.

The question is which qualities and which analytical attitude we should and can offer in analysis to help a child regain his or her capacity to symbolize, irrespective of how poorly developed or…
