Full Description


This book skillfully brings developments in psychotherapy up to date. Dr. Gertrude Blanck writes with a clarity and simplicity that can only be acquired with discerning and seasoned expertise. Extracting from the proliferation of complex and often contradictory popular schools of thought, she presents what is essential and fundamental in clinical work today. In a question-and-answer format, illustrated with patient-therapist dialogue, the practice of psychotherapy is organized, explained, and made accessible. Dr. Blanck addresses a broad range of topics including how to design the treatment, build psychic structure, learn from symptoms and defenses, formulate a developmental diagnosis, teach parenting skills, and know when medication is desirable. Her lively and very practical use of a model case demonstrates the application of her thinking to clinical technique and interventions. An excellent teaching resource, this book is ideal for practicing clinicians, supervisors, residents, and graduate students in clinical psychology and social work.
