Synopsis

The Clinical Case in Psychoanalysis explores the question of what makes a 'case' in psychoanalysis, more than a century after Freud invented analytic treatment.

Luis Izcovich brings a Lacanian perspective to this important issue, asking under what conditions we can affirm that a case is a case of the psychoanalytic clinic. Izcovich examines the evolution of clinical vignettes in contemporary psychoanalysis, critically assessing how analysts present their own clinical experiences. Through rigorous analysis, he questions established psychoanalytic practices, demonstrating the profound clinical effects of analytic interpretation and the transformative impact of the psychoanalytic experience. Drawing extensively on Lacan's teachings, this book reveals why understanding clinical structure as just one dimension of a case represents a crucial advancement in psychoanalytic thought.

The Clinical Case in Psychoanalysis will be essential reading for clinicians and scholars seeking to deepen their understanding of psychoanalytic case formulation and therapeutic efficacy.
