Abstract: | In this article, I present a case involving early object loss in which I both assessed the patient and treated her. Assessment revealed a particular object relational defensive structure-a false self. The concept false self was then used as a bridge to treatment. The case is discussed from several perspectives including the clinical inference process, the relationship between assessment and treatment, and the vicissitudes of early object loss. |
