Manic Depressive Illness / The Challenges of a Therapist Inflicted
[ send me this essay ]
Mary Redfield Jamison, in her work An Unquiet Mind, demonstrates the characteristics and struggles of
a psychologist and therapist who suffered the ravages of mental illness. This 8 page paper considers the characteristics of the psychological disturbance as they manifested themselves in Jamison as both a person and a therapist and relates specific memorable episodes presented in her work. In addition, this paper also provides speculation about how Jamison might conduct herself in a clinical interview and considers factors like transferences and countertransferences that might occur between Jamison and a therapist. No additional sources cited.
