My T is into Self Psychology which is a different school is of thought to Object Relations (obviously) but from my limited understanding there is some overlap. I find Winnicott's theories to be more straightforward than most other things I've read and his thoughts on parenting are particularly interesting to me as my Mother is a regular topic in my sessions.
