The Social Work Psychoanalyst's Casebook begins with an interview
with Dr. Sanville, who reflects on her evolution as a social work
analyst, theoretician, writer, teacher, and leader. These
reminiscences are followed by accounts of nine analytic treatments,
each of which offers an unusual window into what actually
transpired between analyst and analysand during the treatment
hours. These case studies concern particularly troubled, often
traumatized patients-the very "hard to reach" or "difficult to
treat" clients with whom social workers have long been familiar.
They include a reanalysis by the same analyst of a patient whose
first therapy ended in a stalemate; an account of transference and
countertransference phenomena during termination; a report on the
analysis of a young woman who experienced both chronic and
stress-related trauma; and an account of the special issues
involved in the treatment of an aging woman. Most of the case
studies reflect the influence of Dr. Sanville, whose work has long
evinced the therapeutic imagination and disciplined creativity to
which all the contributors aspire. Tthe contributors to this volume
offer the salutary reminder that analytic work is built on a
relationship of respect and empathy and that treatment success
follows from the therapist's willingness to accommodate the unique
needs of individual patients. In honoring Jean Sanville, The Social
Work Psychoanalyst's Casebook speaks to the robustness of a
multidisciplinary approach to psychopathology that transcends the
bounds of any single profession-an approach in which contemporary
psychoanalysis is enlarged by the insights and emphases of social
work just as social work is enriched by the clinical wisdom of
psychoanalysis.
