by Alison Vaspe | The Marion Milner method: Psychoanalysis, Autobiography, Creativity

by Emilia Halton-Hernandez, Abingdon, Routledge, 2023, 183 pp., £29.00 (paperback), ISBN: 978-1-03-228295-4

in The European Journal of Psychotherapy and Counselling. Volume 25, 2023 – Issue 3


This is a beautifully written book, offering a perceptive, well-researched account of the life, work,
and ‘Method’ of the writer, artist and psychoanalyst Marion Milner (1900-1998). This Method
involved Milner in visiting what Halton-Hernandez calls ‘autobiographical sites’, not in the usual
sense of autobiography as recounting life events in the world, but as capturing the ‘vistas and
contours of the inner world’ (p2).”  Alison Vaspe (BPA)
