Presenting SST in a way that both interests conventional therapists and shows the potential of this way of delivering therapy services, Windy Dryden details the multiple levels of thinking and intervening that go into single-session practice. He covers the orientation thinking experienced SST therapists have about the work when they are not doing it, the pre-session thinking they engage in while actively preparing to do the work, and the in-session thinking they engage in while doing the work.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Oedipal Experiences in SameSex Families
Book SynopsisThis book updates the Oedipus complex for a contemporary audience in the light of social and cultural changes and explores its implications for psychoanalytic treatment and our understanding of queer families.Growing evidence during the past few decades indicates that children who grow up in same-sex families adapt well. These findings, which do not conform to the predictions of Oedipal theory, expose the theory's biases, and call for reexamination of its premises.

Furnished with vivid illustrations, it invites the reader to engage actively in the interpretive effort and presents a diverse and complex story about kinship, opening a window onto a rich world of infantile phantasies and parents' psychological conflicts, at the fascinating intersection of the personal and the social.Oedipal Exper

Taylor & Francis SelfinRelationship Psychotherapy in Action
Book SynopsisThis book presents a comprehensive guide to applying Meier and Boivin's Self-in-Relationship Psychotherapy model to clinical work with individuals, couples, families and children.The central theme of the book is that the paradigm of affects, cognitive processes and behaviors that informs current psychotherapy approaches needs to be broadened to include core self, relational and physical intimacy needs as motivating factors in psychotherapy. Drawing on multiple influences including relational psychoanalysis, the authors illustrate how to work with core needs when providing therapy to children and adults. They establish that core needs are universal, and their realizations are essential for healthy living and argue that clients achieve the healthiest outcomes by finding a way to balance the self alongside their relations with others. The concept of core self, relational and physical intimacy needs is what binds all the chapters in this book and makes it unique among psychothera

Taylor & Francis Ltd Psychotherapeutic Treatment of Psychosis
Book SynopsisThis book explores the psychoanalytic treatment of a patient with psychosis from a range of different psychotherapeutic perspectives.The psychotherapeutic treatment of psychotic individuals is both rare and controversial with a limitation in availability of clinical material. As psychoanalytically oriented therapy is private, it is almost impossible to witness the actual human interaction of therapeutic process. While catatonia is a rare disorder, there are many attempts to hypothesize a theoretical psychic structure for the range of disorders called psychotic. Therapists rarely report successful outcomes of long and unusual treatments. In the book, a fragment of the treatment of a catatonic adolescent is reconstructed as an endeavor in representing that which is not clinically representable. Following the case report, which also reveals part of the history of the therapist, prominent analytic clinicians of different theoretical orientations share their understanding and comm

Taylor & Francis Lacan and Psychoanalytic Obsolescence
Book SynopsisThis book explores the importance of Lacanâs role as an irritant within psychoanalysis, and how Freud and Lacan saw that as key to ensuring that psychoanalysis remained fresh and vital rather than becoming obsolescent.Drawing on Freudâs thinking as well as Lacanâs, Rabate examines how Lacanâs unwillingness to allow psychoanalytic thinking to become stale or pigeonholed into one part of life was key in his thinking. By constantly returning to psychoanalytic ideas in new and evolving ways, Lacan kept psychoanalysis moving and changing, much as Socrates did for philosophical thinking in classical Athens. This âgadflyâ or irritant role gave him free reign to explore all aspects of psychoanalytic thinking and treatment, and how it can permeate all aspects of life, both in the consulting room and beyond.Drawing on a deep understanding of Lacanâs work as well as Freudâs, this book is key reading for all those seeking to understand why Lacanâs work remains so important and so

Book SynopsisThis book outlines the life and intellectual thought of the English surrealist artist and psychoanalyst, Dr Grace Pailthorpe (1883â1971). It gathers her published and unpublished writings, providing an in-depth study of the importance of Surrealism in her work and legacy.Pailthorpeâs theoretical understanding of the psyche informed her approach to art, setting her work apart from other Surrealist artists by unifying artistic, scientific, and therapeutic aims. Pailthorpe considered Surrealism to be a method of investigation into unconscious mental life and believed that it was essential that the repressed part of our minds should find expression. Her theories were influenced by personal and professional experiences such as her work with female offenders, her psychoanalytic training, and her research project with Reuben Mednikoff. By bringing her artistic and theoretical work to light, Montanaro and Stefana reassert Pailthorpeâs significance to the histories of both psychoanaly

Taylor & Francis Psychodynamic Supervision Theory and Practices
Book SynopsisThis book sets out a new model for psychodynamic supervision, designed around relational psychoanalytic theory and practice. It emphasizes the development of the self of the therapist and working directly with the emergent therapeutic relationship. Building on Barsnessâs seminal Core Competencies of Relational Psychoanalysis text, this book is grounded in those theoretical competencies. The author offers what he calls the MAMAL method of supervisionâ(Mâmuse; Aâaffect; Mâmetabolization; Aâarticulation; and Lâlearning), a method that privileges (1) affect over cognition, (2) the use of the therapistâs subjectivity as the primary portal to the patientâs internal and interpersonal world, (3) the immersion of the supervisorâs subjectivity in the supervisory process, and (4) viewing the patient as a muse rather than an object of assessment. The MAMAL method approach enriches the supervisory experience and enhances the therapeutic process, fostering a therapeutic climate wh

Taylor & Francis Therapeutic Love and Heartfullness
Book SynopsisThis book introduces the concepts of âœtherapeutic loveâ and âœheartfullness,â combining models of group analysis, art therapy, and individual psychotherapy to present a new psychotherapeutic framework where non-erotic love is engendered and evoked within therapeutic encounters.The heart has often been conceptualised as symbolic of sexuality and eroticism, with little meaning beyond the romantic, and therefore often removed from psychotherapeutic perspectives. Responding to this, the author calls for placing the heart as the central point of reference in therapeutic work, emphasizing how it is touched during a therapeutic session. This, in turn, gives way for the therapistâs own emotions and thoughts, such as empathy, identification, concern, protectiveness and laughter, to be released.Building upon the authorâs 40 years of experience in practice and new developments in these models, this book âmeandersâ through evolving theories and integrates them for both patients a

Taylor & Francis Neuroscience and the Death Drive
Book SynopsisIn this book, Adrian Perkel seeks to expand upon Freud's theory of the death drive by locating it within modern neuroscience, arguing for the centrality of the aggressive drive in the formation of mind, and the genesis of symptoms and psychopathology.Neuroscience and the Death Drive reformulates the function of defence mechanisms as they link to the aggressive drive and their role in the binding of free energy. Filling an important gap in both formulation and treatment, this book completes Freud's self-confessed incomplete theory of aggression through the lens of modern psychoanalysis and neuroscience, updating these concepts with current scientific insights, and introduces a refreshed view on psychotherapeutic treatment implications based on these developments. Perkel explores the treatment of patients experiencing eating disorders, anxiety, depression, addiction, personality disorders and sexual dysfunction.This invigorating and approachable book will be of interest to all psychoanalysts, psychiatrists, psychotherapists and counsellors, and will help readers reach new understandings of this key theory of the mind.

Taylor & Francis Facilitating Posttraumatic Growth
Book SynopsisIn this book, Calhoun and Tedeschi construct the first systematic framework for clinical efforts to enhance the processes they sum up as posttraumatic growth. Posttraumatic growth is the phenomenon of positive change through struggle with even the most horrible sets of circumstances. People who experience it tend to describe three general types of change: realistically stronger feelings of vulnerability that are nonetheless accompanied by stronger feelings of personal resilience, closer and deeper relationships with others, and a stronger sense of spirituality. Posttraumatic growth has only recently become an important focus of interest for researchers and practitioners. Drawing on a burgeoning professional literature as well as on their own extensive clinical experience, the authors present strategies for helping clients effect all three types of positive change - strategies that have been tested in a variety of groups facing a variety of crises and traumas. Their cTrade Review"Calhoun and Tedeschi have written a masterful book that takes on the dialectic of traumatic experience: that strength and growth can emerge from and accompany terrible pain and loss. This important text succeeds in challenging clinicians to notice resilience and strength among their trauma survivor clients, while never turning away from or diminishing the horror and pain of personal trauma. The authors tackle a complicated and difficult subject with scholarly care and clinical sensitivity. They carefully avoid the potential pitfalls of naivete, insensitivity, and moralism while emphasizing the need for complex thinking about the long term effects of traumatic life events. The book has a clear, sensible organization that will make it valuable to clinicians at all levels of experience."—Karen W. Saakvitne, Ph.D.Traumatic Stress Institute/Center for Adult and Adolescent Psychotherapy South W"Drawing on their extensive experience as both researchers and clinicians, Calhoun and Tedeschi have produced a very readable and practical book for any clinician who works with clients struggling to cope with traumatic events. While acknowledging the negative aftermath of trauma, Calhoun and Tedeschi describe valuable techniques for encouraging posttraumatic growth in clients. Particularly helpful are the numerous case examples, homework assignments for both clinicians and clients, and an extensive resource list."—Patricia A. Frazier, Ph.D.University of Minnesota, Minneapolis"The Phoenix is the mythological bird who rises anew from the ashes of its own funeral pyre. In their work on posttraumatic growth, Calhoun and Tedeschi put flesh and feathers on our hazy outline of this ancient symbol of resurrection. By focusing on the possibility of positive transformation after trauma, the authors urge clinicians to think outside the box, to consider all the ways in which the overwhelming energy of traumatic experience can be refocused on accelerating the dynamic of health instead of illness and injury."—Sandra L.

Taylor & Francis Epistemontology in SpinozaMarxFreudLacan
Book SynopsisA. Kiarina Kordela steps beyond extant commentaries on Marxâs theory of commodity fetishismâfrom A. Sohn-Rethel to L. Althusser, Ã. Balibar, Slavoj ÅiÅek, and othersâto show that in capitalism value is the manifestation of the homology between thought and being, while their other aspectâpowerâis foreclosed and becomes the object of biopower. Using monistic Marxian/Lacanian structuralism as an alternative to dominant models from Plato and Kant to phenomenological accounts, deconstruction, and other contemporary approaches, Kordela expertly argues that Marxâs theory of commodity fetishism is a reformulation of the Spinozian thesis that thought (mind) and things (bodies or extension) are manifestations of one and the same being or substance. Kordelaâs link between Spinoza and Marx shows that being consists of two aspects, value and power, the former leading to structuralist thought, the latter becoming the object of contemporary biopower. Epistemontology in Spinoza-Marx-FreudTrade Review'In Epistemology in Spinoza, Marx-Freud-Lacan, A. Kiarina Kordela gives us what has been sorely lacking in recent work on biopower: a reflection on how the commodification of self-actualization anchors the current moment of late capitalism. Through a series of joyful readings of Spinoza, Marx, Freud, and Lacan, Kordela opens a perspective not just on biopower, but on our own singular essence irreducible to capitalism's incessant repetition of the same old same old. This is a work to be reckoned with, to be thought about, and above all to be enjoyed.' - Timothy Campbell, Professor of Italian, Department of Romance Studies, Cornell University'At a moment when philosophy appears blocked in pointless antinomies, between either constructivism, or new materialism and speculative realism, A. Kiarina Kordela breaks with these antinomies and reveals those seemingly radical opponents as tacit accomplices - or "couples" in Bachelardian sense. Kordela's courageous advance aims for what philosophy can do best: it takes a position, it draws clear lines of demarcation, and it gives a superb overview of the current situation on philosophy's battleground.' - Robert Pfaller, University of Art and Industrial Design, LinzTable of ContentsIntroduction 1.

Taylor & Francis Sabina Spielrein and the Beginnings of
Book SynopsisSabina Spielrein stands as both an important and tragic figureâmisunderstood or underestimated by her fellow analysts (including Jung and Freud) and often erased in the annals of psychoanalytic history. Her story has not only been largely forgotten, but actively (though unconsciously) repressed as the figure who represented a trauma buried in the early history of psychoanalysis.Sabina Spielrein and the Beginnings of Psychoanalysis joins the growing field of scholarship on Spielreinâs distinctive and significant theoretical innovations at the foundations of psychoanalysis and serves as a new English language source of some of Spielreinâs key works. The book includes: Four chapters by Felicity Brock Kelcourse, Pamela Cooper-White, Klara Naszkowska, and Adrienne Harris spanning Spielreinâs life and exploring her works in depth, with new insights about her influence not only on Jung and Freud, but also Piaget in Geneva and Vygotsky and Luria in Moscow. Trade Review"This fascinating book fills a large gap, and provides an important corrective, showing Sabina Spielrein as an original and innovative psychoanalytic thinker in her own right, not as a minor or romantic character between Jung and Freud, nor as one who primarily borrowed from them and Piaget, for example. Cooper-White and Kelcourse, along with Harris and Naszkowska, give us Spielrein as one of the truly influential women in early psychoanalysis, despite erasure and non-citation. Accessible translations of her writings allow us to hear her own extraordinary voice."-Donna M. Orange, Ph.D., Psy.D., New York Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, New York, USA "Felicity Kelcourse and Pamela Cooper-White have edited an important collection of essays on the life and psychoanalytic contributions of Sabina Spielrein. The literature on Spielrein has come a long way since Aldo Carotenuto’s 1982 A secret symmetry: Sabina Spielrein between Freud and Jung. Subsequent literature has moved away from a focus on the triangular relationship between these famous figures to a critical assessment of Spielrein’s original work. Kelcourse focuses on Spielrein’s 1911 psychiatric dissertation, "On the Psychological Content of a Case of Schizophrenia." Cooper-White analyses Spielrein’s important 1912 article, "Destruction as a Cause of Becoming." Two additional contributors. Klara Naszkowska and Adrienne Harris cover Spielrein’s return to Russia in 1923, assessing her contributions to the development of psychoanalysis in Russia, with a specific focus on child language development."-Brian Skea, IAAP, Ph.D., Jungian psychoanalyst, private practice, Brewster, Massachusetts, USA; teaching faculty, past President and current Curriculum Coordinator, Boston Jung Institute "This fascinating book fills a large gap, and provides an important corrective, showing Sabina Spielrein as an original and innovative psychoanalytic thinker in her own right, not as a minor or romantic character between Jung and Freud, nor as one who primarily borrowed from them and Piaget, for example.

The literature on Spielrein has come a long way since Aldo Carotenuto’s 1982 A secret symmetry: Sabina Spielrein between Freud and Jung. Subsequent literature has moved away from a focus on the triangular relationship between these famous figures to a critical assessment of Spielrein’s original work.

Cooper-White analyses Spielrein’s important 1912 article, "Destruction as a Cause of Becoming." Two additional contributors.

Taylor & Francis Ltd BodyMind Dissociation in Psychoanalysis
Book SynopsisThe conflict and dissociation between the Body and the Mind have determinant implications in the context of our current clinical practice, and are an important source of internal and relational disturbances. Body-Mind Dissociation in Psychoanalysis proposes the concept as a new hypothesis, different from traumatic dissociation or states of splitting. This approach opens the door to a clinical confrontation with extreme forms of mental disturbance, such as psychosis or borderline disorders, and strengthens the relational power of the analytic encounter, through a focus on the internal sensory/emotional axis in both analyst and analysand. The book details this importance of the analyst's intrasubjective relationship with the analysand in constructing new developmental horizons, starting from the body-mind exchange of the two participants. Body-Mind Dissociation in Psychoanalysis will be of use to students, beginners in psychotherapy, mental health practitioTrade Review‘What seems to us unique is Riccardo Lombardi’s use of his own body, of embodied experiences in the analysand and in the entanglement of both analyst and analysand bodies in fantasies shared and unshared. His approach is designed to teach us confidence in our creative listening, caution in what we imagine we know, and compassionate identification with patient’s suffering and our own. Lombardi strikes us as an analyst determined on the deepest possible encounter with the analysand’s subjectivity at unconscious, somatic, barely figurable levels. At the same time, he is always mindful of the interdependence of consciousnesses across persons inside the consulting room and in the wider world of families and groups.’ - Adrienne Harris and Lewis Aron, Editors of the Relational Perspectives Book Series‘Body-Mind Dissociation in Psychoanalysis is an immensely useful handbook for the practicing clinician, a guide to recognition of the crucial role of mind-body dissociation in various forms of psychopathology, as well as a compendium of helpful suggestions concerning the techniques by which mind-body dissociation can be addressed and repaired.’ - Owen Renik, Former Editor of the Psychoanalytic Quarterly and author of Practical Psychoanalysis for Therapists and Patients.‘Body-Mind Dissociation in Psychoanalysis is a most original contribution to the psychoanalytic literature: the reader is asked to adopt a new orientation, as if someone had suddenly changed all the subway lines and their stops. This book is extremely rich in clinical presentations, in which the analyst’s interventions always surprise his patients, not to mention his readers. Like those very few authors who are able to turn our psychoanalytic knowledge upside down - as is the case with James Grotstein and Thomas Ogden - Riccardo Lombardi compels the reader to make a quantum leap. He opens the door to what has up to now been unthinkable, exploring the proto-sensorial levels of the analytic relationship in a unique way.’ - Antonino Ferro, President of the Italian Psychoanalytic Society and Consultant Associate Editor of the International Journal of Psychoanalysis.Table of ContentsForeword Introduction 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Impact of Parenthood on the Therapeutic
Book SynopsisThis volume covers the range of reactions that both patients and clients have to the circumstance of a child entering the therapist's family. Through research, the authors show these reactions can be extremely powerful, and when fully explored can be used to advance the therapy and the development of the patient. Rich clinical illustrations are provided throughout the text. In addition, the reader is offered many therapeutic strategies for working with patient-therapist reactions as they unfold. Many practical issues arise in conjunction with this life transition. Examples include announcing a pregnancy or an imminent adoption, planning parental leave and covering the patient's needs during the hiatus. In this second edition, therapists who are members of LGBT families and single parent families are described in terms of their special needs, challenges and resources. This updated edition also contains a new chapter on special problems that can arise during pregnancy. Trade Review"What a lovely tribute to the therapeutic and transformative opportunities available to both the expectant parent-therapist and the client! In this, their 2nd edition, Fallon and Brabender outdo their excellent original exploration of this topic, with added knowledge, awareness, openness, and sensitivity. Their enhanced information on non-traditional families and adoptive situations provides thoughtful perspective on shifts away from family-role specialization. Ultimately, this book guides both the client and therapist toward honoring the richness of a special passage, thereby increasing the depth and breadth of the therapeutic collaboration."Diane H. Engelman, PhD, Center for Collaborative Psychology, Psychiatry, and Medicine, Kentfield, California; licensed psychologist, private practice"Fallon and Brabender’s book reflects the current relational trend in psychodynamic thinking which accepts that events in the therapist’s personal life can affect the patients and their ongoing treatment. It focuses upon one such exigency, namely, the therapist’s pregnancy, and carefully elucidates its far-reaching effects upon the clinical exchange. The authors’ contribution does not remain restricted to individual psychotherapy but addresses the therapist’s impending parenthood in the context of supervision, group therapy, and the slowly-unfolding developmental processes within the patient as well as the therapist. Their discourse is engaging, replete with clinical examples, and profoundly enriching for the therapeutic armamentarium of both the novice and the experienced practitioner."Salman Akhtar, MD, professor of psychiatry, Jefferson Medical College, training and supervising analyst, Psychoanalytic Center of PhiladelphiaTable of Contents1.

Book SynopsisCulturally Sensitive Supervision and Training: Diverse Perspectives and Practical Applications is a comprehensive text that exposes readers to an array of culturally competent approaches to supervision and training. The book consists of contributions from a culturally and professionally diverse group of scholars and clinicians who have been on the frontline of providing culturally competent supervision and training in a variety of settings. Many of the invited contributing authors have developed innovative clinical-teaching strategies for skillfully and effectively incorporating issues of culture into both the classroom and the consulting room. A major portion of the book will provide the reader with an insiderâs view of these strategies as well as a plan for implementation, with one chapter devoted to experiential exercises to enhance cultural sensitivity in supervision and training. The text is intended for use in supervision courses, but trainers and supervisors will alsTrade Review“This refreshingly honest book pushes the boundaries of supervision and training by challenging supervisors and trainees to explore how their cultural identities inform their clinical work. Hardy, Bobes, and colleagues masterfully demonstrate how to have difficult cross-racial conversations, including experiential exercises that move trainees from awareness to self-reflection. Given the increasing need to understand the vastly different lived experiences of our changing world, this book trains clinicians to be part of that moral imperative.”—Laurie S. Kaplan, LCSW, Co-Director, Diversity and Social Work Training Program, Ackerman Institute for the Family, New York“Culturally Sensitive Supervision and Training will not only become a must-read for supervision courses and classes in psychology, counseling, or other educational forums, but will be an invaluable resource for practitioners longstanding in the field as well as those newly in practice. The readings will not only validate some of current therapists’ experiences, but will help guide them to take new, more effective paths in their work. This is an outstanding, most welcomed contribution to the field!”—Matthew R. Mock, PhD, Professor of Counseling Psychology, John F. Kennedy University“The family therapy field finally has a supervision text of supreme quality that focuses our attention on self of the therapist work and dimensions of culture! Unlike other supervision texts, it doesn’t just give a cursory nod to culture. It provides a clear theoretical framework for understanding dimensions of culture and the relationship to power, privilege and oppression. This book is a resource that should be a required text for all MFTs and AAMFT Approved supervisors.”—Cadmona A. Hall, PhD, LMFT, FT, AAMFT Approved Supervisor, Associate Professor, Department of Couple & Family Therapy, Adler University“Culturally Sensitive Supervision and Training takes a bold step in the right direction for those interested in integrating a culturally-sensitive and affirmative approach into their supervisory experience.

Taylor & Francis Routledge International Handbook of Sexual
Book SynopsisThe concept of sexual addiction has gained increasing recognition in the academic and healthcare communities since the 1990s. It has also captured the attention of the media, where there has been much debate over whether it can truly be described as an addiction. What is certain is that many people struggle with out of control sexual behaviour, which takes over their lives and has harmful consequences for their relationships, careers and finances.The Routledge International Handbook of Sexual Addiction brings together a comprehensive range of perspectives on sexual addiction from a worldwide selection of scholars and therapists. It sets out to define sexual addiction and to study its causes from a range of different psychological perspectives. A series of presentations of sexual addiction are outlined, including internet sexual addiction and the relationship between paraphilias and sex addiction. The handbook considers both individual and group treatment strTrade Review"This handbook is essential reading for anyone working academically or clinically in the field of sexuality.

As such, it should also be required reading for all therapeutic students as they formulate their own ways of working with this ubiquitous clinical presentation." - Dr Glyn Hudson Allez, Forensic Psychosexual Therapist, Fellow of CORST, UK"This handbook is essential reading for anyone working academically or clinically in the field of sexuality.

Taylor & Francis Ltd History of Countertransference
Book SynopsisThe constant and polymorphous development of the field of psychoanalysis since its inception has led to the evolution of a wide variety of psychoanalytic schools'. In seeking to find common ground between them, Alberto Stefana examines the history of countertransference, a concept which has developed from its origins as an apparent obstacle, to become an essential tool for analysis, and which has undergone profound changes in definition and in clinical use.In History of Countertransference, Stefana follows the development of this concept over time, exploring a very precise trend which begins with the original notion put forward by Sigmund Freud and leads to the ideas of Melanie Klein and the British object relations school. The book explores the studies of specific psychoanalytic theorists and endeavours to bring to light how the input from each one may have been influenced by previous theories, by the personal history of the analyst, and by their historical-culTrade Review‘The present volume is a comprehensive, detailed, and eminently fair analysis of the gradual development, problems and increasing sophistication of the concept and therapeutic utilization of countertransference. Stefana provides the historical background to the controversial origin of the discovery of the countertransference complications in the management of transference, and appropriately deepens the description of new theoretical and clinical developments to permit the reader to reach his own conclusion regarding the contemporary controversies of countertransference management. This book is a fascinating history of psychoanalytic discoveries, and should of great practical interest not only to the psychoanalytic clinician, but it is also a scholarly contribution to the study of developing psychoanalytic science.’ - Otto Kernberg, MD; psychoanalyst and professor of psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical College, USA.'This superb history of the concept of countertransference makes an invaluable contribution to our field. The depth, breadth and range of Alberto Stefana’s understanding and his outstanding scholarship make this book essential reading for anyone who is engaged in the study and practice of analytic therapy.' - Theodore J. Jacobs, M.D., Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, The Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York, USA."Despite his intractable subject matter, Stefana has performed an invaluable service to the psychoanalytic community by creating what is essentially a reference guide to the plethora of writings on countertransference. He enables us to go back to the original authors, and the rich clinical material on which they based their ideas, and thereby discover the theorists who work best for us individually as we navigate the many challenges of the clinical situation with our patients." – Hilary J. Beattie, Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association, 2019, 67/3."This is a fascinating and nuanced history of psychoanalysis through the singular lens of countertransference. Though focused, it has a wide sweep, as the deepening of this concept has had huge impact on the whole of psychoanalytical practice and training" – Barbara Faden, Journal of Analytical Psychology, 2019, 64/3"the book is rigorously informative, for clinicians as well as academic researchers, about the clinical and historical developments of British object relations, as well as encouraging about how countertransference can be valued as a tool to affect and become affected by another in a clinical setting." – Valerie O. Giovanini, Psychoanalysis and History, 2019, 21/2"In his book-length essay Alberto Stefana outlines the history of psychoanalysis itself through the lens of a single, pivotal concept. I think the conceit works rather well in this case. Allowing for the distinction between clinical and metapsychological concepts, I think the concept of transference-countertransference is well‐chosen as an exemplar of clinical thinking. Most importantly, it reveals the extent to which the analytic encounter is above all a relationship; moreover, we are encouraged by Stefana to treat transference and countertransference as a single clinical phenomenon." – Steven Groarke, Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences, 2019, 55/1"We all can benefit from Stefana’s labor of love. His insight and nuanced reading of many analytic giants (some well known, others less so) help us understand the varied terrain of countertransference" – Leslie Wells, Psychoanalytic Psychology, 2019, 36/4‘The present volume is a comprehensive, detailed, and eminently fair analysis of the gradual development, problems and increasing sophistication of the concept and therapeutic utilization of countertransference.

Book SynopsisWhat is supervision, and what is distinctive about supervision for coaches? This book has a dual purpose: to explore the value of supervision to both giver and receiver in a transformative relationship, and to offer practical guidance for both beginning and experienced supervisors. In Supervision and Coaching, Hilary Cochrane and Trudi Newton create a story of supervision, beginning with a challenge: how can we find an understanding of what happens in supervision, and what is it that we do that enables learning in this relationship to be both a source of professional growth and personal development? The authors identify what goes on in the process of supervision, whatever the field of application, and look at the role of being a supervisor as separate and different from being a master practitioner or mentor. With clarity and through real-life examples, the book explores the relationship and the developmental impact of supervision, using transactionTable of ContentsAcknowledgementsList of FiguresIntroductionChapter 1 What is supervision?Chapter 2 Ways of looking, ways of seeing: perspectives on supervision Chapter 3 Relational needs: the supervision triangleChapter 4 Learning in relationshipChapter 5 Creating effective contracts: empathy and rigourChapter 6 Success and safety: the context and ethics of supervision Chapter 7 Supervision in practice: courage and vulnerabilityReflections – what next?Competencies for coach supervisionCodes for ethical practiceFurther reading BibliographyIndex
