Making Sense Together

by Peter Buirski, Pamela Haglund (Contributor), Emily Markley (Contributor)

The second edition of Making Sense Together provides a greater examination of the clinical practice of the intersubjective perspective. Listening and responding intersubjectively is concerned with attuning to affect, putting words to affective experience, and maintaining a caring relationship that offers the kind of needed self-objective experience missing in development. In addition, the intersubjective perspective co-constructs a developmental narrative that contextualizes the evolution of the person’s troubles. In this new and updated edition, authors Peter Buirski, Pamela Haglund, and Emily Markley draw on more than twenty years of combined experience teaching and supervising in the practice of the intersubjective perspective.

Reviews

[Audrey Francoeur · Rating 5 out of 5]

Lecture facile qui rappelle l’importance de marcher dans les pas du patient, tout en considérant comment il s’est organisé à partir de l’enfance. La relation est centrale et lecture qui fait du bien. L’approche est selon ma subjectivité ;), pleine de sens, humble et pallie aux limites des autres approches qui négligent la subjectivité du thérapeute. Concepts bien vulgarisés et plusieurs exemples.

[Gabriel Desjardins · Rating 5 out of 5]

Really interesting and reassuring book about how context and relationships can be implemented within an analytical stance

[Trevor · Rating 4 out of 5]

Inspiring message about the power of the therapist-client dyad. Covers transference, countertransference, tracking themes and patterns, and helping clients regulate affect.
