Conversing With Uncertainty Practicing Psychotherapy in A Hospital Setting
Biography
Rita Wiley McCleary, Psy.D., holds Master's Degrees in Philosophy (York University) and Ideas and Methods (University of Chicago), and a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (Chicago School of Professional Psychology). She is currently Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, and is in private practice in New Haven.
"This struggle of a beginning psychotherapist is reminiscent of the first chapter of Robert Coles's The Call of Stories (1990) wherein he speaks of his efforts to use theory to deal with his own uncertainties and the conflicting views he received about patients from his supervisors. . . . McCleary's thoughtful dialogue with theories gives them more stature than was granted by Coles. Her book will be useful, enjoyable reading both for beginning psychotherapists and for their teachers and supervisors."
