In this remarkable account of the trials and tribulations of a beginning therapist, McCleary recounts the confusion that attended her initial efforts to treat Kay, a hospitalized adolescent, and then explores her successive engagement of three sets of ideas that helped her find her bearings. Out of her "conversation" with these ideas emerges a brilliant mediation on how McCleary used theory both to structure the therapeutic encounter and to monitor her performance within it.McCleary, Rita W. is the author of 'Conversing With Uncertainty Practicing Psychotherapy in a Hospital Setting' with ISBN 9780881631487 and ISBN 0881631485.
