Rules

The meaning of rules derives from their interpersonal acceptance. In fact, one important function of rules is to enable an intersubjective exchange to take place. This is particularly true in psychoanalysis. A uniform framework ensures that findings are comparable, etc., thus enabling standardization of the psychoanalytic process (Bachrach 1983). (51 pgs)

The Psychoanalytic Process

The following sections contain discussions of the function of process models and of the features essential for evaluating them, and a description of various conceptions of the process, including our own.(32 pgs)

Relationship Between Theory and Practice

In evaluating the interaction of theory and practice, it is essential to distinguish the growing treasure of knowledge and its systematization in the general and specific theories of neurosis from its appropriate therapeutic application.(27 pgs)

Case Histories and Treatment Reports

This chapter’s title, “Case Histories and Treatment Reports,” reflects the discord in Freud’s work between the theory of genesis and that of change. Our reconsideration leads us in the first section of this chapter to reject the notion that he gave adequate scientific consideration to both poles of this discord in his case histories. It is necessary to reformulate his famous assertion about the existence of an inseparable bond between curing and research. A promising new source for regrounding psychoanalytic therapy is for us to take the fact seriously that the theory of repeated traumatization has significance for the structuring of the therapeutic situation. (75 pp.)

Psychoanalytic Practice Vol 1: Principles

This work keeps the issue of the relationship of psychoanalytic theory to practice, which is often glossed over, at the center of attention. Technique is not simply the application of theory. There is a broad range of psychoanalytic therapies – Kleinian, Bionian, Lacanian, object relational, self psychological – that represent the application of the same psychoanalytic theoretical understanding of the mind. Psychoanalysis as theory and as practice is enhanced by this confrontation. (1213 pgs)

Psychoanalytic Practice:Vol 2: Clinical Studies

This second volume of Psychoanalytic Practice demonstrates value and efficacy in treatment. Advances in psychoanalytic technique are linked to the critical collaboration with patients. Case histories from a period of more than thirty years are included, and in many cases it was possible to examine the effectiveness of psychoanalysis in long-term follow up studies. The theoretical framework provides orientation enabling one to see phenomena, hear words, read texts, and comprehend the connections between human experiencing and thinking. (1557 pgs)

Transference and Relationship

Demonstrate the dependence of transference phenomena, including resistance, on the analytic situation and its shaping by the analyst — starting with the appearance of his office and continuing with his behavior, his sex, his countertransference his personal equation, his theory, his image of man, his weltanschauung, etc. Thus, we will be testing the principal thesis of this book on the central core of psychoanalysis — transference and resistance — and investigating the extent of the analyst’s influence on the phenomena which are traditionally ascribed solely to the patient. (40 pgs)

Countertransference

We consider it vital to let the patient participate in the analyst’s reflections, including those about the context and background of interpretations, in order to facilitate his identifications. This permits us to regulate the relationship of closeness and distance to the analyst as the “object.” Heimann described this process; we have tried to describe its fundamental significance. (26 pgs)

Resistance

Analytic work is performed in the therapeutic relationship. Thus the basic pattern exhibited by resistance is directed against the transference relationship which is being sought. (54 pgs)
