Transference and Countertransference from an Attachment Perspective: A Guide for Professional Caregivers
Autor Una McCluskey, Michael O'Tooleen Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 sep 2019
Locating the phenomenon of transference within an evolutionary perspective, this important new book develops a new form of dynamic therapy that focuses on the dynamics of attachment in adult life and will be of use to a range of mental health professionals.
Transference and Countertransference from an Attachment Perspective: A Guide to Clinical Practice explores the ways in which transferential phenomena can be located in the different aspects of the self that are instinctive, goal corrected and interrelated. At the centre of the book is the idea that when intrapersonal or interpersonal systems (aspects of the self, such as careseeking, caregiving, sharing interests, sexuality, self defence, building a home) get aroused, the behaviour that follows is only logically and meaningfully connected when the system (aspect of the self) reaches its goal. Placing this new theoretical and clinical approach within the psychoanalytic tradition, the work of developmental psychologists and the field of neuroscience, the book takes us to the heart of the clinical encounter and explores a range of issues including: trauma, the effect of early misattunements, love and hate in the therapeutic relationship, burnout in caregivers, the need for exploratory care for caregivers themselves.
Building on the therapeutic modality that emerged from the research described in McLuskey's To Be Met as a Person (2005), this book provides a valuable guide for psychologists, psychotherapists, nurses, social workers, organisational consultants, teachers, coaches, and workplace managers.

Recenzii
‘In this original and important work, McCluskey and O’Toole bring insights from Attachment Theory and research and Interpersonal Psychoanalysis to bear on professional care-giving. They show convincingly how tone of voice, prosody, and body posture are preconditions for the goal corrected affect attunement that forms the basis of successful psychotherapies. Their training groups help practitioners to understand their countertransferences, and the origins of defensive caregiving. An accessible and pragmatic volume with vital messages for all serious care-giving professionals.’ —Prof. Jeremy Holmes, University of Exeter
‘This new work by Una McCluskey and Michael O’Toole is one of the most encouraging books to emerge in the practice and theory of psychotherapy for a long time. It contains one of the best accounts of a therapeutic relationship in the crisis of reliving and making sense of an original trauma. Stunning, loving and benign. Bravo!’ —Colin Kirkwood, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, Edinburgh
"This is undoubtedly a book which with its abundance of ideas and sophisticated application to practice has a great deal to offer all professional caregivers, and indeed others seeking a better understanding of the myriad challenges which we encounter in our everyday lives." - Kate Wilson, Journal of Social Work Practice
