Description

Against Understanding, Volume 1 is a groundbreaking exploration of how understanding in psychoanalytic practice can obscure rather than illuminate clinical work. Winner of the 2014 American Board & Academy of Psychoanalysis Book Prize for Best Anthology, this Routledge publication challenges the widespread assumption that understanding patients is the primary goal of therapy. Bruce Fink argues that the contemporary emphasis on understanding transforms the unfamiliar into the familiar, reduces the radically other to the same, and prevents practitioners from hearing what clients actually communicate in the analytic setting. This volume presents a Lacanian perspective that fundamentally reconsiders how psychotherapists and psychoanalysts approach their clinical work, making it essential reading for mental health professionals seeking to deepen their theoretical understanding and refine their practice beyond conventional assumptions about the therapeutic relationship.

Key Features

Bruce Fink presents a counter-intuitive argument about understanding in the analytic setting, challenging mainstream psychotherapy practices.
