Of note, my therapist, who typically discloses nothing, disclosed that his analyst was James Grotstein and his analyst’s analyst was Bion. I think that puts him in the object relations camp perhaps. I didn’t know who either of these analysts were before I looked them up and find them both sort of hard to read.
