The role of the father in the formation of female sexual identity: A case study

In this thesis the role of the father and his contribution in the formation processes of female sexual identity is examined. The study uses a conceptual – clinical framework and consists of a theoretical part, in which a review of psychoanalytical concepts referred to the father in relation with the psychosexual development of his daughter is elaborated and a second part where a clinical study is presented. At first, the theoretical review reveals the role of the father and his absence, according to the psychoanalytic theory, in relation with the integrational processes of his daughter's sexual identity. The father, as an object of the unconscious fantasy, plays a crucial role in the pre-oedipal and the oedipal developmental stages as far as in the manifestation of early anxieties and the integrational processes of the sexual identity. In the second part, a clinical case (Ν=1) is presented in order to examine the theoretical concepts mentioned above in their clinical manifestations. The case study refers to a woman with depressive symptoms, whose preoccupation with identity issues (sexual and racial) was of paramount importance. The clinical study contains material such as the patient's dreams, her recollections and parts of her descriptions about critical events in her life. Specifically, the role of the parental imagos, the phantasy of the primal scene and the integrational identity processes are examined in detail. Furthermore, in the clinical material the consequences of the paternal absence in the processes of the female identity are underlined through the axis of transference – countertransference. It is inferred that the paternal emotional absence can hinder the integrational processes of the female sexual identity, creating pre – oedipal fixations and difficulties in the formation of coherent models of identification. As a conclusion, the therapeutic process, comprising qualities of paternal functioning, may facilitate the patient in the perspective of integration.
