Abstract
Successful psychotherapy with a potentially filicidal woman is described. The case clearly illustrates how childhood incestuous experiences may later result in the formation of filicidal impulses. This occurred when the patient’s daughter reached the age at which the patient herself had experienced incest (anniversary reaction).This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
