TY - JOUR PY - 1992// TI - Treating the hospitalized borderline patient: reworking trauma of toddlerhood JO - Journal of the American Academy of Psychoanalysis A1 - Silver, A. S. SP - 114 EP - 129 VL - 20 IS - 1 N2 - Frequently borderline patients are found to have suffered specific traumata during the separation-individuation phase. These traumata seem to have been experienced by them as punishment for their attempts at autonomy or for their early masturbatory explorations. Psychoanalytically oriented hospital-based treatment can allow for reexperiencing and resolving these difficulties, as illustrated in a case presentation.
