Positive Psychiatry, 2e
MattaAPA

ISBN: 9798894552132
October 2026
Psychiatry, as a discipline, has traditionally focused on identifying and treating what is wrong, but positive psychiatry integrates strengths and well-being to promote flourishing. Positive Psychiatry offers a practical and deeply human approach to mental health care—one that moves beyond treating illness alone to help individuals and families build resilience, meaning, connection, and lifelong well-being. Rooted in philosophical traditions of human flourishing and informed by advances in neuroscience, behavioral science, and public health, positive psychiatry integrates strengths-based approaches into clinical care. This second edition of Positive Psychiatry builds on the first edition to detail how positive psychiatry can be applied fully and effectively in clinical practice. The book explores selected positive psychological constructs for which the empirical, clinical, and translational literature has substantially advanced over the past decade.

Jungian Training and Being Trained, 1e
WienerKarnac Books Limited
270 pages
ISBN: 9781800134744
October 2026
A Jungian approach to training emphasises the importance of individuation. Yet, most analytic training takes place in institutions with hierarchical cultures. This edited volume investigates the unconscious forces within training institutions worldwide that can undermine the very values these institutions want to help their candidates to develop. Jungian Training and Being Trained lets in the light on the unconscious forces that shape the training experience of trainees and trainers. It explores and challenges many of the implicit assumptions that influence and fashion the trainings on offer. International contributors, each engaged in the development and delivery of training, examine the various conscious and unconscious beliefs and processes that not only creatively inform, support, and structure the training process, but also undermine or contaminate it.

Anxiety, 1e
AkhtarKarnac Books Limited
250 pages
ISBN: 9781800134850
October 2026
The book features contributions from a stellar international line up: Salman Akhtar, Maxine Anderson, Cobi Avshalom, Behdad Bozorgnia, Tom DeRose, Joseph Fernando, Alan Michael Karbelnig, Julie Jaffee Nagel, Gila Ofer, Mary Kay O’Neil, Nirav Soni, and Daniel Traub-Werner. Anxiety is one of the most central concepts in both the theoretical and clinical foundations of psychoanalysis. Thus, the study of anxiety is, in effect, the study of psychoanalysis itself. Salman Akhtar and Mary Kay O’Neil have gathered together a thoughtful group of scholars to cover this challenging terrain. The book opens with two chapters that lay out the groundwork for things to come: the first offers succinct definitions of the plethora of psychiatric and psychoanalytic terms pertaining to this emotion; the second elucidates Freud’s changing views of anxiety. These chapters are followed by independent discourses on separation anxiety and castration anxiety that attempt to describe, critique, and update these well-established notions. A section on cultural matters follows which includes essays on performance and climate anxieties. Part IV focuses on the clinical process and provides three pithy discourses on the entanglement of anxiety with enactment, aging, and trauma. The fifth and final part explores the analyst’s clinical and professional anxieties. The book’s approach arises from a multiplicity of perspectives. It aims to strengthen theory, clinical practice, and the technical skills of all psychoanalytically oriented therapists. It is essential reading for practicing clinicians, trainees, and students to help them gain a better understanding of the complexities of anxiety.

Bluebird, 1e
CooperKarnac Books Limited
140 pages
ISBN: 9781800134942
October 2026
This posthumous memoir by Andrew Cooper is the first book in the Tavistock Lives series. It traces connections between early experience and later physical and mental pain, and between personal fears about death and dying and the wider societal forces that shape our responses to them. It is also a rich exploration of the life-enhancing potential of psychoanalytic psychotherapy – which Andrew credits with saving his life. Psychotherapy takes its place alongside physical medicine, which enabled Andrew to overcome two episodes of cancer in his youth followed by further serious illnesses leading to hospitalisation and life-long medication. The book is at once a story of a life and an intelligent enquiry into lived experience. Andrew confronts the existential questions that haunt us all, reflecting on past encounters, revisiting long-held beliefs, and exploring the revelations of dreams. Andrew inspired many throughout his professional life, and his final book does so again – this time on a more personal level. Bluebird sings a song of hope as it looks back on a long, good life. It is the ideal companion for those drawn to life stories and those seeking answers to life’s biggest questions.
