The Self Under Siege: A Therapeutic Model for Differentiation:
“How much of our identity or self is truly representative of our own wants and goals in life, and how much does it reflect the wants and priorities of someone else?”
This is the question Robert Firestone, a clinical psychologist and author who has focused his lengthy professional career on helping people in the process of individualization, and colleagues Lisa Firestone and Joyce Catlett pose in their latest book, The Self Under Siege: A Therapeutic Model for Differentiation. Though its intended audience is mental health professionals, the book may have great significance for the lay reader as well: anyone interested in learning how to free themselves from the negative views and desires of others — namely, of their parents.
