How can clinical expertise be taught? From the author of the landmark \u003ci\u003ePsychoanalytic Diagnosis\u003c\/i\u003e, this book takes clinicians step-by- step through developing an understanding of each client's unique psychology and using this information to guide and inform treatment decisions. McWilliams shows that while seasoned practitioners rely upon established diagnostic categories for record-keeping and insurance purposes, their actual clinical concepts and practices reflect more inferential, subjective, and intuitive processes. Interweaving illustrative case examples with theoretical insights and clinically significant research, chapters cover assessment of client temperament, developmental issues, defenses, affects, identifications, relational patterns, self-esteem needs, and pathogenic beliefs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Winner--Gradiva Award, National Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNancy McWilliams, PhD, ABPP, teaches psychoanalytic theory and therapy at the Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology at Rutgers--The State University of New Jersey.
