Freud's psychoanalysis and its original representative in the UK,
the British Psychoanalytic Society, have gone through unavoidable
developments over the decades of their existence. We now have
innumerable organizations training professionals in very diverse
forms of psychodynamic therapies and it can be difficult to
recognize the original sources of their theories and practices.
This multiplication of trainings has led to an ever-increasing
number of theoretical postulates that have come to be adopted as
dogmas. Examples are transference and counter-transference,
negative impulses, separation anxiety, the importance of the
setting and the importance given to the patient's past and present
life outside the consulting room. The present application of the
new definitions of old concepts has led to a concept of therapy
where the analyst/therapist/counselor comes to be seen as the
central figure in the patient's life and which creates and fosters
a situation of dependence on the availability of the professional.
The papers in this book consider some of these issues and stress
the importance of considering analysis/therapy/counseling as means
of enabling the patient to lead an independent life."
