Description
The Devouring Kronos: The impact of father-son relationships on the son’s relationship with food and the body in the Jungian consulting room with Dr Philippe Jacquet.
This talk is based on Philippe’s doctoral research and explores a rarely discussed subject: male eating disorders.
He will discuss his framework, the Male Eating Disorder Matrix, and illustrate it through the myth of Kronos, as a way to understand what is happening unconsciously in the room between analyst and patient.
