Transtheoretical Practice of Psychotherapy
Abstract
A developmental model forms the framework for the transtheoretical practice of psychotherapy. Major preoedipal and oedipal events, interfaced with significant two-person (mother-child) and three-person (father-mother-child) influences—dyadic deficit, dyadic conflict, triadic deficit, triadic conflict—are instrumental in the formation of different relationship patterns in treatment that transcend classical versus selfobject transferences. Therapeutic as well as countertherapeutic stances and strategies are elucidated.
