Conversing with Uncertainty is a unique chronicle of why therapists
must use theory while resisting the allure of theory, maintaining a
double vision that allows them to appropriate theory only to break
it open to enlarge the interactive and interpretive possibilities
of therapy. But McCleary offers far more than a vivid experiential
rendering of this insight. She argues persuasively, here in
conversation with the writings of Irwin Hoffman and Lawrence
Friedman, that a narrative case study - such as her case study of
Kay - offers a unique window to comprehending the type of
reflection that culminates in psychotherapeutic knowing. It
follows, for McCleary, that case narratives are especially relevant
to psychotherapeutic training, and by implication, to the way in
which therapists acquire expertise. Framed by a foreword by Stephen
Mitchell and an afterword by Glen Gabbard, Conversing with
Uncertainty is the premier volume of the Relational Perspectives
Book Series. It also introduces a gifted writer of rare therapeutic
sensibility. For it is McCleary's achievement, finally, not merely
to convey with arresting candor the stress and uncertainty of
clinical training, but to use her encounter with Kay to probe with
fresh insight perennial questions about the narrative structure of
therapeutic knowledge, the experiential foundations of theory
choice, and the use and abuse of theory in clinical practice.
