Integrity in Depth (Carolyn and Ernest Fay Series in Analytical Psychology) by John Beebe

Carolyn and Ernest Fay Series in Analytical Psychology

by John Beebe

In this book, John Beebe reveals much about the nature of integrity while honoring its central mystery. He traces the evolution of the concept from a moral and theological notion to a psychological one. Viewing anxiety and shame as functions of integrity, he shows the contributions depth psychology can make to integrity's development. Drawing on his own years of experience as a psychotherapist, Beebe shows how the holding environment of psychotherapy can use delight and rage, dreams and transference to reveal and foster individual integrity.

I think I know less about integrity than I did before I started reading.

Fun aside: This book was written in 1992 and refers to Woody Allen as "One of our best moral artists." (p. 59)
