Object Relations Theory: Why we repeat the same toxic relationship patterns.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- We discussed the main points of the Object Relations Theory, followed by a case study.
The Object Relations Theory is a modern psychodynamic concept created collectively by various psychoanalysts, most notably Melanie Klein and Donald Winnicott. The theory places emphasis on how our relationship with our early caregivers creates a bedrock for our relationships later in life.
This video was largely based on the book “Essential Psychodynamic Psychotherapy: An Acquired Art” by Teri Quatman ➭ amzn.to/3NyeS4o

Thank you so much, I have read it in my textbook, attended the class lecture on it, and reviewed my professor's PowerPoint over and over. Because of you I FINALLY feel like I understand. It might be the culmination of all the studying but this is where the lightbulb lit
Thank you for your feedback, Labrigni. We're always happy to hear that our content brings further clarification and understanding to our viewers. Thank you for supporting our channel!
I know right! my personality lecturer was very smart, but i still didn't get the point of Klein's theory😅
Hello what’s the name of the text book please?
I'm studying for my licensing exam and this video finally helped me to understand the fundamentals of Object Relations Therapy. If only you had more videos for the other psychological theories!
@@calistatermini5403 I am glad that it is helpful. Good luck with your exam.
If you don’t “gravitate” toward the familiar is possible you “create” the familiar? Like if in the example he had a good loving partner he felt anxious so he took steps to change the dynamic between the two of them to make it more familiar for him?
I appreciate this question. Curious for some answers too.
So that would explain the rigid and strict way we interact with people-we,love people,but we hate some kind of people,although there is no real reason for it.
I'm teaching HS psychology and this is a clear and visual explanation THX
PERFECT. ALL secondary schools ought to have mandatory psych classes.
Thank you for making this simple and informative
Thank you. This is certainly good enough. I have had trouble understanding the concept 'object' in this context.
I hope to see more good enough videos from this channel.
🇲🇾
Thank you so much for this well-explained video. I could not wrap my mind around Object Relations theory in relation to the enneagram. This is helping me to understand it better along with its implications. Thanks so much!
The quote by Dr.Bruce helped me thank you
Agreed - we're glad you also find it helpful. Thank you for supporting our channel!
Great video....but just for clarification, that quote about people who prefer the certainty of misery was actually NOT by Dr. Bruce Perry. Even in his book, he gives credit for that quote to someone else. I believe the original quote came from the late great family therapist Virginia Satir.
I love the name of this channel. Winnicott video next!
Thank you for stopping. Yes, a Winnoctt video is definitely in store in the future.
Very well explained. Thank you!
hi , thanks for uploading very informative video
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS🥰
Certainly, this video help me to apply the theory in real life situation.
This video was amazing ! Thank you. Wish there were more.
thanks, you make it so simple
Thank you for stopping by.
Thank you so much. I love the video. Great to the point explanation unlike the go around of the book.
Thank you for such a great video!!
Would be interested to know how can that person change....now that the abusive pattern is gone, how healthy relationship will look like?
That is an excellent question. In my opinion, a healthy relationship is defined by what IS NOT rather than what IS. In other words, building a healthy relationship is a journey, not a destination. For instance, as you start noticing your current relationship pattern is not healthy, you may try to move away from that type of negative relationship pattern. Through this journey, you may continuously discover and update what you want in a "healthy" relationship.
Very well explained
fantastic video, fairbairn was genial
but for real yeah can relate and hope to fix that
Thank you for a great video!
Thank you, Tammy! Stay tuned for more videos:)
Very good thank you 🙏
Well done.
5:29 wasn't it Virginia Satir that said this?
Yes, even in Dr. Bruce Perry's book, he gives credit to someone else for that quote. I think it was Virginia Satir.
great video!
Awesome
I have been reviewing key psychodynamic theories and for some reason, this one just doesn't click..... I know this theory turns the single person psychology into a 2 person psychology focusing on relationships with "objects". But how does this differ from attachment theory? also, is the depressed position and paranoid schitzoid related to this? Thank!
my apologies for the late reply. I think similarly as you in that both object relations theory and attachment theory talk about interpsychic realm rather than intrapsychic. But, I do think they are distinct. Attachment theory adds a unique layer of biological drive infants have to attach to caregivers while object relations theory discusses the internalized representations of relational landscapes. Of course, the two theories complement each other. I hope it is helpful.
Do you know any books about this?
Hello, there is no good book for the general public for the object relations theory. But, “Essential Psychodynamic Psychotherapy: An Acquired Art” by Teri Quatman is a great intro book for anyone interested in this type of therapy.
damn thats some computer science
