Nancy McWilliams writes psychoanalytic psychology for clinicians, students and readers interested in personality and therapeutic formulation. Psychoanalytic Diagnosis organises personality styles and levels of psychological functioning in a way designed to support clinical understanding rather than simple labelling. Psychoanalytic Case Formulation explains how therapists can build an individualised picture of a patient's history, defences and relational patterns, while Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy focuses on the practical conduct of treatment. McWilliams's prose is clear, clinically detailed and case-oriented, with recurring attention to how diagnosis should inform treatment rather than reduce a person to a category. Her work fits psychoanalysis, psychodynamic therapy, personality theory and professional psychotherapy training. Read more Less
