Overview

"This is a book that grew out of the many practical ""how-to"" questions that the author's psychotherapy students have asked him over the years. It is neither an evidence-based compendium nor an attempt to summarize general practice or the viewpoints of others, but rather a handbook of practical answers to many of the questions that may puzzle student"

Reviews

Dr Bach's book is perhaps the quintessential volume on how to proceed as a psychoanalytic therapist. It is, however, much more than that; it is a book that contains the wisdom of a master clinician delivered in a manner that is readily accessible at many different levels. On a first reading, one might think that, yes, this is very helpful and I am glad to have received this guidance. On a second reading, one begins to realize that a view of psychoanalysis is subtly inculcated in the text and that the depth and scope of the material stirs one to consider some of the basic concepts in our field in a new light. It is a book for the young clinician to help them begin to find their way, and a book for older clinicians to help them more fully understand the pathways that they have traversed. --Steven J. Ellman, Professor Emeritus, City University of New York; Faculty and Supervisor, Post-Doctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis This book is a little gem; words of practical wisdom by a master clinician. Sheldon Bach has long been regarded as an analyst's analyst, a voice of experience that transcends categorization into singular schools of thought. Here is his advice for the beginner, the fundamentals of clinical practice, of holistic healing, and of the therapist's own self-care. Lewis Aron, PhD, Director--Post-Doctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis
