Abstract

Abstract Despite the advent of the neuroleptic drugs in the 1950s, schizophrenia continues to cause widespread economic burden and disability. Various psychoanalytic scholars have offered theories of schizophrenia as a mental illness, and research has consistently demonstrated psychotherapy’s effectiveness as a component of schizophrenia treatment. The contributions of the late Italian-American psychiatrist Silvano Arieti are reviewed here as an example of a unified biological and psychodynamic approach to schizophrenia. Clinical techniques for working analytically with schizophrenia patients are reviewed. Implications of an integrated approach to the disorder are discussed within the current climate of mental health.

期刊介绍： Psychoanalytic Social Work provides social work clinicians and clinical educators with highly informative and stimulating articles relevant to the practice of psychoanalytic social work with the individual client. Although a variety of social work publications now exist, none focus exclusively on the important clinical themes and dilemmas that occur in a psychoanalytic social work practice. Existing clinical publications in social work have tended to dilute or diminish the significance or the scope of psychoanalytic practice in various ways. Some social work journals focus partially on clinical practice and characteristically provide an equal, if not greater, emphasis upon social welfare policy and macropractice concerns.
