Das Verhalten von suizidalen Patienten als Botschaft verstehen.
We need a new and comprehensive understanding of suicidal patients, the message their behaviour emits and the best way to establish a therapeutic relationship. Statements containing suicidal tendencies should not be interpreted as signs of an imminent collapse, but rather as extreme messages of the person s mental state. Suicidality has two important functions: to secure the object and to change the object. Based on his long experience in the psychotherapy of suicidal patients, Jürgen Kind presents a new and comprehensive understanding of the message contained in patients behavior. This enables establishing a working relationship in which suicidal tendencies become part of the communication.
