This book is a selection of papers written over 25 years of
practising psychoanalytic psychotherapy, of training and
supervising psychotherapists, psychodynamic counsellors and
supervisors. It reflects a preoccupation with the growth and
diversification of counselling and psychotherapy, with the
imperatives of training, supervision and regulation, and with the
significant changes in the profession due to the invention of
brief, time-limited, intermittent and recurrent psychotherapy. An
overall theme is the conviction that what patients and therapists
share is vulnerability, and that the therapist is a 'wounded
healer', whose reparative tendency informs his professional choice,
his therapeutic empathy and his capacity to bear the rigours of
therapeutic work. Thus an unconscious connection between the helper
and the helped is the driving force of every therapeutic
relationship, for better and for worse. Its responsible management
requires thorough training, ongoing supervision and a firm frame in
order to contain the powerful forces operating when two strangers
meet for the purpose of therapy.
