Preoedipal Issues in a Postincest Daughter
Abstract
A thorough analysis of the incest literature reveals a complex family disorder, one which is multifactorial in nature and etiology. A case history is presented which focuses on the importance of the preoedipal mother-daughter relationship in some cases offather-daughter incest. It is also suggested that a female-therapist/female-patient dyad more readily provides the opportunity for the analysis of guilt, the making of reparation, and the development of higher levels of object relations.
