I could listen to her all day. She's warm, interesting, empathic, emotionally intelligent, broadly educated on personality psychopathology and mental illness, insightful and had depth of thought, and she has a wonderfully genuine laugh. Watching this was an amazing hit of dopamine just to know there are clincians in the world like her. My god, if you're going to train AI on how to be an empathic, kind, sincerely helpful clincian please, please, please let the AI algorithm learn from her.

Nancy McWilliams' 'Psychoanalytic Diagnosis' is a wonderful book which complements the psychodynamic diagnostic manual perfectly. Thanks for uploading this excellent video.
Brilliant video, a superb overview of the PDM clinical approach that's very useful for beginning psychotherapists from one of the best experts in psychodynamic therapy. Most enjoyable, especially as Nancy McWilliams is so authentic and generous in her didactic style.
Wow, that was the most extraordinary interview of a therapist, IMO. She seemed to be so comfortable to just let things flow. So easy to follow her authentic style of organizing her thoughts. I didn’t want it to end! This could probably be integrated into a psych schools curriculum. Thank you 👍💪😃
This was amazing and inspired me so much as a psychology student ! Love her words at the end of the video ! It really took so much pressure off my shoulders ! Very sweet lady ! ❤
My guess is that most of us experience mixed personalities. Bits and pieces of many, unless we are more severely disturbed. (I'm guessing, please think it out for yourself.)
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for making these videos. Besides all of the erudition, I love her use of the word 'crazy'. To me, it normalizes and destigmatizes the experience of being and acting 'crazy' and acknowledges it as real and part and parcel of being human.
This is a summary of therapy that has taken my breath away. Thank you for your brilliance and ability to make the psychodynamics so understandable. I wish I'd been your patient fifty years ago!
As a therapist and instructor myself, I got SO much out of this, will rewatch. Thank you for highlighting this and thank you Dr. McWilliams for such cogent and engaging analysis of people and your own process as a therapist.
This is fascinating and so enlightening. The casual way in which DSM-psychiatry "hotchpotches" together personality styles and personality organizations shows how much is wrong with psychiatric ""diagnosing"".
Thank-you Elliot, for directing and producing such a natural and accessible film. Together, you’ve created an atmosphere that I feel I’m in the room with Dr McWilliams, a master therapist who embodies her work - teaching the complexity of the psychodynamic diagnostic process through knitting ideas, experience and theory into a fabric that I can admire, appreciate and hold onto.
what a brilliant human being . It melts my heart her wisdom. Her way of putting all this topics out is fascinating and highly empathetic and deep. It's an honor to be able to learn from someone like this wonderful woman.
This looks interesting to me. A therapist that actually engages the patient. Sitting in a room with a quiet psychotherapist isnt going to work for me. 😅😂
What I really enjoyed was the level of insight Ms. McWilliams has, in the area of BPD. Her insights have helped me to see areas that require looking into.
11 mins in, I finally understand the very basics of my child’s anxiety since my now ex boyfriend came on the scene. My children were scared another parent was going to leave them for someone else! I now feel so bad for not realising it sooner.
So glad to have found this video. Her books had a really big impact on the earliest years of my career, and it's cool to have a live re-interpretation of her own work.
Truly amazing! How Nancy McWilliams engages with her patients in authentic way is remarkable. Where and who can I learn all these real experiences from? Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and insights in such an accessible way! Her last message to new therapists deeply resonates with me...
This is incredible. One request would be to not edit out your questions and the back and forth. This is clearly a conversation (and a wonderful one) and the questions I imagine would be as insightful as the answers ❤
What a brilliant review of such complex material. I'm always amazed and humbled by Dr McWilliams. Thank you very much for this video and to Dr McWilliams for all the wonderful work she does
you want to understand human psychology than listen to her especially if you are a psychotherapist. she makes personality so relevant in all aspects of human interactions. I am a psychiatrist but have shared her knowledge with my family members who are internists as they need to understand the psyche of the patients they treat to help them deal better with the medical issues.
such a wonderful interview. so clearly relating so many grounded concepts in an articulate and accessible way. that note at the end really hit hard, as a therapist just getting started in private practice. I know it will take a lifetime to learn all of this, and I know that I am enough to help people as I am now. but I do get stuck on feeling like I should have memorized everything. it means a lot to hear such supportive words from someone so obviously wise, experienced, and knowledgeable in the field.
What a treat. Thanks so much for creating this content. While the information and perspective is so valuable, so is simply hearing from another relatable psychologist- our work can be so isolating.
Nancy McWilliams ❤Marguerite ❤Altruistic Darling God's Grace Be with you 🙏🏻 Always Nancy McWilliams ❤️ Saved my life single handed. ❤️ Forever Grateful 🙏🏻
"I think I would recommend you to read all the stuff and then forget it"
she's just gifted and genius.
I definitely agree with your last statement.
Am in 2 of Nancy McWilliams Books Donna Love this if I need Nancy on Big Screen just being with you God's Grace
Can some one recommend her books
I could listen to her all day.

"Don’t Take the Human World as Your Homeland
Most people have come from heavens
Don’t just focus on fighting to get ahead in fame and gain
You came naked
When you leave, you shed your skin, taking nothing
Atheism and the theory of evolution have hidden intentions behind them
Modern notions and conduct are reaping evil fruits
The cosmos is dying in the process of formation, stability, degeneration, and disintegration
The Creator creates the new cosmos, busy in saving all beings
People came to the world to wait for His salvation and guidance
Dafa that offers return to heaven is already spreading widely in the world
Don’t take the human world as your homeland
Gain the Fa and return to heaven-you’ve been waiting for it for so long, too long

Good point
I love Nancy (yes, idealization, yes) 🥰
What a precious person! Thank you Dr. McWilliams and the channel for the wonderful interview 🤍
She is amazing! I have learned SO much from her!!
It’s 11.30pm and I’m 45mins in, I don’t want this interview to stop!! 🫶🌈
The Master speaks 🙌❤ Thank you 🙏
I can listen to her for hours and on repeat. Such a wealth of knowledge and experience..
Nancy McWilliams' 'Psychoanalytic Diagnosis' is a wonderful book which complements the psychodynamic diagnostic manual perfectly. Thanks for uploading this excellent video.
"It's fun to mouth off about things that are important to me " .
How adorable is she 🙌🙌❤️

Thank for this new year 2024 gift..she is a legend in her field🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤ and i really learn so much from this video
Wonderful. A request: please do something like this video with O Kernberg, if possible, while that genius is also still with us !
💯
Yes and please give him a GOOD microphone, so much with him online is made with dreadful audio equipment
So grateful to you for getting these pioneers to share their wealth of psychoanalytic knowledge and wisdom!
This woman is a gift. Wished she was asked about mixed personality styles.
My guess is that most of us experience mixed personalities. Bits and pieces of many, unless we are more severely disturbed. (I'm guessing, please think it out for yourself.)
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for making these videos.
Besides all of the erudition, I love her use of the word 'crazy'. To me, it normalizes and destigmatizes the experience of being and acting 'crazy' and acknowledges it as real and part and parcel of being human.
totally agree, that struck me too!!!

She's just nice. She puts me at ease. ❤ Smart actin', sympathetic. She reminds me of my analyst.
I would love to have her as my therapist! ❤
Excellent interview, thanks for recording this!
This is one of the best psychotherapy lectures I have come across. Thank you!🙏 ❤
I love psychodynamics. So much so that I trained in it. This woman though is amazing.
This looks interesting to me. A therapist that actually engages the patient. Sitting in a room with a quiet psychotherapist isnt going to work for me. 😅😂
Dr McWilliams is such a delight to listen to, I’m training as a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and her insights and experience is invaluable.
Mam, you are an amazing teacher. Its a privilege as a young psychiatrist to be able to listen and learn from you from another corner of the world🙏
Inspiring. Amazing. Please have Nancy on again soon!
What a great introduction to becoming a psychotherapist. Thank you.
What I really enjoyed was the level of insight Ms. McWilliams has, in the area of BPD. Her insights have helped me to see areas that require looking into.
What a wonderful woman, such a beautiful human and what an inspiration in clarity and compassionate love. Thank you so much. ❤

She is an amazing person. I really loved her explanations.
Love her! Amazing wisdom n clarity with so much humility 😊
So impressive. Just excellent. I'd like to know her thoughts on somatic therapies.
yes. i think she would majorly support but not have much experience in her own practise
such a wonderful interview. so clearly relating so many grounded concepts in an articulate and accessible way. that note at the end really hit hard, as a therapist just getting started in private practice. I know it will take a lifetime to learn all of this, and I know that I am enough to help people as I am now. but I do get stuck on feeling like I should have memorized everything. it means a lot to hear such supportive words from someone so obviously wise, experienced, and knowledgeable in the field.
Thank you for sharing this!
A lovely lady and a brilliant mind!
I have learned a lot from her books!!😊
This was so interesting, I could listen to her talk for hours.
Thank you for sharing us such a brilliant approaches.
Thanks Nancy and Elliot 😊❤️
amazing. thanks you!!!
Great to learn about what is going on in therapy with both patient+client so well expressed..
Such a wonderful interview. Thank you so much!
What a treat. Thanks so much for creating this content. While the information and perspective is so valuable, so is simply hearing from another relatable psychologist- our work can be so isolating.
Wonderful! And great quality (video quality, editing etc). Good job!! Subscribed.

This is exactly what I needed as a clinician in training 😊

I guess everyone has several of these, and that they change over time.
Her voice is so soothing. Same like Gabor Mate.
I wish she was my therapist.
As a therapist, this is a good recap to fresh the foundation of my training.
If I could get my hands on those notes Nancy 😉
She's just so interesting!
I aspire to have her knowledge.🤯
You are a beautiful person. I mean, wonderful!
„You‘ve gotta help me but you‘re gonna fail“ wait, that‘s kinda me lol
