Quotations:
“My first two books on feminism and psychotherapy were inspired by my years of practice as a psychotherapist, plus my years of involvement in the women’s movement, beginning in 1970. I wanted to show that, although psychoanalysis had some major biases toward women, it could still be practiced by modern women and men with some modifications in the theory of female development."
“My third book was inspired by the controversy around the issue of repressed memory of childhood sexual abuse. I attempted, by selecting authors of differing views, to present a balanced approach to the subject at a time of great polarization in the field."
“My current work is based on the observation that older men often remarry younger women. I am interviewing people and doing research to try to get an understanding of this phenomenon.”
Charlotte Krause Prozan has two children - Karen Krause Andresen and Jeff Krause.
