Learning from our Mistakes by Patrick Casement

Learning from our Mistakes by Patrick Casement

Learning from our Mistakes: Beyond Dogma in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy examines some of the problems that are inherent to psychoanalysis, particularly in view of the analyst's claim to know the patient's mind better than the patient which can blind the analyst to those times when he is in error. Patrick Casement examines the processes of supervision and internal supervision by which practitioners can develop their awareness of the patient's experiences within the clinical encounter, and particularly considers the issue of mistakes and enactments by the analyst. Illustrated with numerous clinical descriptions and taking into account psychoanalysis over the past 100 years, Casement makes a strong case for being open minded rather than dogmatic in clinical practice. This book will be invaluable to practitioners, trainers and trainees of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy, and is readily accessible to the educated general reader.

"Patrick Casement's new book is a unique and rare gemBringing the clinical encounter alive as only he can do, Casement illustrates convincingly, and with great wisdom, a creative and flexible approach to patients, to the treatment process and to the analyst's inevitable errors, that is invaluable to clinical work. A master class taught by a master clinician ... a book that must be read by every practicing therapist." - Theodore J. Jacobs, MD

The books strengths lie in its clinical acumen and in providing the reader with a wealth of case examples. The author's candid sharing of his clinical experiences act as a form of supervision for the reader. It offers a master class in object relations that includes fine tuning of techniques that we commonly use to analyse the transference. - Ricardo Stramer, The Journal of the British Association of Psychotherapists
