Abstract

The article is a book review of "Psychoanalytic Supervision" by Nancy McWilliams. The reviewer praises McWilliams for her accessible writing style and extensive knowledge in the field. McWilliams covers various topics related to supervision, including different models and her own approach. She integrates her previous work on psychic development and character structure into her supervisory approach. The book also addresses cultural differences and the importance of the supervisor's role as a mentor. However, the reviewer notes that the book lacks guidance on working with problematic moments and unconscious dynamics in supervision. Overall, the book is seen as a valuable resource for psychodynamically-oriented supervisors. [Extracted from the article]
