Timeline

1987

In Taking Care - An Alternative to Therapy (1987) Smail, after many years as an active psychotherapist, cast doubt on the supposed mechanisms by which therapy is claimed to be effective. While he does not condemn therapy as useless, he suspected that it is only effective to the extent that the therapist becomes a true friend to the client, involved in their world. Catharsis, the supposed process by which people are 'cured' of 'mental illness' once they gain 'insight' into their problems, is illusory, and therapists are to a large extent magicians involved in wishful thinking. In this book he recommends that we 'take care' in our involvement in life, and of others we are involved with.

1961

After graduating from University College London with a degree in Philosophy and Psychology, he worked briefly in market research before moving into clinical psychology; training at Horton Hospital in Epsom and then at Claybury Hospital in Essex (circa 1961). He obtained a doctorate in philosophy on the subject of guilt and aggression in 1965 from University College London. He was head of clinical psychology services in Nottingham (UK) until 1993 and he retired from the NHS in 1998.
