What is it like to be a working psychoanalyst? And what is it like
to be held in the mind of one? These were the questions that led
Winer and Malawista to interview seventeen notable analysts from
around the world. Who's Behind the Couch?: The Heart and the Mind
of the Psychoanalyst explores the analyst's mind at work, not so
much from a theoretical perspective, but rather from the
complexities and richness inherent in every moment-to-moment
clinical encounter. As analysts we are all continually challenged
to find what might work best with a particular patient. Yet we
don't often hear senior analysts share their personal struggles,
feelings, and sensibilities. To understand the internal experience
of analysts the authors posed questions such as: What is it like
for analysts to manage rough spots, to lose ground and try to
recapture it? To feel appreciated and then to feel devalued? To
feel betrayed? To feel responsibility for someone's life while
working to maintain their own balance?
