In recent decades the relationship between psychoanalysis and
psychotherapy has been a focal point for debate about the
distinctiveness of analysis as a particular kind of therapeutic
enterprise. In Interpretation and Interaction, Jerome Oremland
invokes the interventions of "interpretation" and "interaction,"
rooted in the values of understanding and amelioration,
respectively, as a conceptual basis for reappraising these
important issues. In place of the commonly accepted triadic
division among psychoanalysis, exploratory psychotherapy, and
supportive psychotherapy, he proposes a new triad: psychoanalysis,
psychoanalytically-oriented psychotherapy, and interactive
psychotherapy. Anchoring his classification in what he terms the
"orientation of the therapy" rather than the "orientation of the
therapist," Oremland submits that analysis and
psychoanalytically-oriented psychotherapy strive systematically to
interpret the therapeutic interaction as expressed in the
transference. Interactive psychotherapy, on the other hand, uses
the transference selectively to ameliorate psychic stress.
Interpretation and Interaction is enriched by a concluding chapter
from Merton Gill, a preeminent authority on the therapeutic
process. Gill's critical appreciation of Oremland's proposals
amounts to an illuminating refinement of his own position on the
relationship between psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. Scholarly in
conception, thoughtful in tone, and pragmatic in yield,
Interpretation and Interaction is a clarifying addition to the
psychoanalytic theory of psychotherapy. It will have the practical
consequence, in Gill's words, of "aiding clinicians in retaining
their analytic identities and their analytic orientation across the
spectrum of their therapeutic work."
