"I'm like a whirling leaf in the wind," said one of Dr. Lena
Nilsson SchOnnesson' s patients, and another "I'm in the claws of
HIV." Their voices and those of other HIV-positive patients frame
the humanistic and scholarly discussion in this impor tant book.
Dr. SchOnnesson, a Fulbright scholar at the HIV Center for Clinical
and Behavioral Studies, Columbia University in 1995, has unusually
extensive clinical experience in counseling HIV-positive gay men.
Her work with 38 such patients treated between 1986 and 1995 is
discussed in the pages that follow. Dr. SchOnnesson's longitudinal
approach to clinical data is extremely unusual in the psychotherapy
literature generally, and in the literature on counseling HIV
positive men in particular. Building upon the experience of such
recent scholar clinicians as Klitzman, Isay, Schaffner, and others,
Dr. SchOnnesson adds some thing unique by analyzing her ongoing
detailed notes of the psychotherapeutic process in a systematic
quantitative as well as qualitative manner. The analysis of her
data is further informed by her coauthor, Dr. Michael Ross, a
therapist and investigator whose contribution to the clinical and
research literature on the psychotherapeutic treatment of gay men
has already been substantial."
