ABSTRACT
When practising psychotherapy, we are implicitly using a model of subjectivity and a model of therapeutic action. This chapter explores what we mean by subjectivity and its development by considering the experience of falling in love. This chapter suggests that he implies that the individual, as isolate, is in continual confrontation with what he does not know of himself as well as with the external world. For Winnicott, "finding" is a very particular idea, seeking to explore how an individual's inner and outer worlds intertwine. Winnicott's description of the subject in health seems to depart somewhat from the idea of achieving health that Freud implied by the notion of "wo es war sol ich werden", translated by Strachey as "where id was there ego shall be". Winnicott seems to differ in that he implies something less immediately clear.
