Author: Patrick Casement

Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 208


Patrick Casement's first book, On Learning from the Patient , is a best seller in its field and has been published in twelve languages. In this new, follow-up volume, the author looks further into the techniques of analysis and psychotherapy and focuses on what happens in the analytic space between analyst and patient. Using many clinical examples, Patrick Casement shows the value of monitoring clinical work from the patient's point of view as well as the therapist's. This process of 'internal supervision' can teach the therapist new things, such as the patient's unconscious search for what is needed for emotional health and recovery. Stressing the importance for the therapist of listening attentively to the patient and taking notice of the communication implicit in behaviour, Casement argues that the unconscious is a potentially positive force, which can work constructively with the therapist. Casement's development of original concepts, and his use of examples to deepen and clarify clinical understanding of the processes involved in analysis and psychotherapy, make Further Learning from the Patient of special value.
