Abstract:

The present article has the objective of examining how we can understand the therapeutic relationship from the dialogue with the Merleau-Ponty's concept of other. The human interaction and communication in the psychotherapeutic contexts are discussed utilizing the understanding of psychotherapeutic relationship in Gestalt-therapy. The subject of dialog and the encounter are raised from the paradox I-other as well as the understanding of corporeity as part of the man-world field. The article presents the idea that in a therapeutic relationship both psychotherapist and client must encounter with each other in their differences. That being said, the therapeutic stance implies a non-stop search for the comprehension and the availability of the other so that the client may come to grasp himself through the differences that emerges at the therapist-client field. The psychotherapist must act on the field of the relationship and, therefore, operate as an opening between the client and the world as an effort to reach the lived-experience of his client.

Abstract:

Background: Psychotherapy and massage therapy (MT) are effective treatments for depression and anxiety. Little is certain about the mechanisms behind these effects in MT, but in psychotherapy they are attributed to a combination of common and specific factors, at the heart of which lies the therapeutic relationship. Research into the psychotherapeutic relationship in MT, therefore, may advance understanding of its impact on depression and anxiety.Purpose: This research seeks to elucidate the components of the psychotherapeutic relationship in MT to inform training, research, and practice.Participants & Setting: Two participants—a therapist and a client—from Melbourne, Australia. Research Design: A qualitative methodology was employed whereby one therapeutic relationship was observed over the course of three massage treatments. After each treatment, the participants commentated recordings of the sessions. The recordings were transcribed and analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) and Conversation Analysis (CA). Themes and subthemes were extracted from the analysis.Results: Four overarching themes emerged: Separateness, Pleasure, Merging, and Internalization. Separateness is associated with the subthemes of Boundaries, Performance of Roles, and Power. Pleasure is associated with the subthemes of Safety, Comfort and Communication. Merging is associated with the subthemes of Contact and Empathy. Internalization has no subthemes.Conclusions: The results suggest that a clearer conceptualization of the therapeutic relationship in MT may help massage therapists more pur-posefully treat depressed and anxious clients. A greater emphasis on self-awareness in the professional development of massage therapists may also foster this. Additionally, the role of pleasure in the therapeutic relationship in MT warrants closer examination.

Abstract:

This article explores the relationship between psychotherapeutic practices with people with refugee backgrounds and “the political”. The relationship between voice and audience in psychotherapeutic practices is explored; through such an analysis the relationship between psychotherapy, history, and the political is considered. The theoretical questions are approached through a case study, a Bosnian man with refugee background living in Finland and attending psychotherapy there who invited the anthropologist to attend his therapy sessions. The analysis of the single case is situated within long-term ethnographic research on the Bosnian diaspora. Situating the personal in historical and moral plots, as well as seeking larger audiences beyond the confines of the therapeutic relationship, is seen as crucial in producing therapeutic effects. Simultaneously, the case enables a theoretical discussion about the relationships between voice, audience, and the political.

Abstract:

Psychotherapeutic interventions that bring about differentiation, separation, individuation and autonomy in the mother-daughter relationship are recommended as treatment for eating disorders. With this goal in mind, a psychotherapy group for mothers was organized in an outpatient program for adolescents with eating disorders at a public institution, as one of the psychotherapeutic approaches in the multidisciplinary treatment of adolescent patients. Evidence suggests that this approach can be relevant and effective in the treatment of eating disorders.

Abstract:

This paper aims to recount a shared experience of some psychology students – an intellectual adventure of exploring one’s own approach towards human relations and nature on the way to becoming a psychotherapist. To become practitioners, the students need to choose a certain psychotherapeutic training based on one of the main psychotherapeutic theoretical approaches. The following are mentioned in this paper: psychoanalysis, cognitivebehavioral therapy, humanistic/existential and the postmodern narrative approach. Exploring the assumptions underlying different modalities and practices is also considered here to be an ethical challenge. It is reckoned that the choice of a specific psychotherapeutical practice bound to a theory shapes the identity of the therapist and the patients, forms the language and behaviour through which the future therapist will express his own Self and influence the Other. Referring to postmodern inspirations, the author speaks in favour of making an endless effort of recognizing the assumptions underlying different practices – as the only way for not taking a potentially violent and impervious attitude in the relationship between the therapist and the patient.

Abstract:

This article is an invitation to reflect on how we can handle the spiritual, existential aspects described by Nossrat Peseschkian in his method of Positive and Transcultural Psychotherapy. The existential aspect was analyzed during the process of therapy and used as a strong resource. According to the Role model, and related with Basic Conflict, author looks at the patient’s relationship with God. The resources offered by religion in psychotherapy can be: hope, acceptance, the meaning of life (useful in depression, death), prayer (which reduces anxiety), meditation exercises and rituals. It is determined that where the patient is facing existential problems, the resources offered by religion are indisputable

Abstract:

Introduction: The significance of psychotherapeutic micro-processes, such as nonverbal facial expressions and relationship quality, is widely known, yet hitherto has not been investigated satisfactorily. In this exploratory study, we aim to examine the occurrence of micro-processes during psychotherapeutic treatment sessions, specifically facial micro-expressions, in order to shed light on their impact on psychotherapeutic interactions and patient-clinician relationships. Methods: In analyzing 22 video recordings of psychiatric interviews in a routine/acute psychiatric care unit of Vienna General Hospital, we were able to investigate clinicians’ and patients’ facial micro-expressions in conjunction with verbal interactions and types. To this end, we employed the Emotion Facial Action Coding System (EmFACS)—assessing the action units and microexpressions—and the Psychodynamic Intervention List (PIL). Also, the Working Alliance Inventory (WAI), assessed after each session by both patients and clinicians, provided information on the subjective quality of the clinician–patient relationship. Results: We found that interpretative/confrontative interventions are associated with displays of contempt from both therapists and patients. Interestingly, displays of contempt also correlated with higher WAI scores. We propose that these seemingly contradictory results may be a consequence of the complexity of affects and the interplay of primary and secondary emotions with intervention type. Conclusion: Interpretation, confrontation, and working through contemptuous microexpressions are major elements to the adequate control major pathoplastic elements. Affect-cognitive interplay is an important mediator in the working alliance.

Abstract:

The article emphasizes, first of all, the importance of various aspects of the psychotherapeutic relationship -such as the therapeutic alliance, the cooperation, the empathy, the goal agreement-, which have been proven to influence the therapeutic outcome and are consistently linked with the mental health improvement of the patient, regardless of the different theoretical conditions and principles of the psychotherapeutic approaches. On the other hand, it is recognized that identifying the quality characteristics that contribute to and influence the psychotherapeutic relationship and process is a difficult task, as it depends on the therapeutic boundaries of this relationship, the characteristics of the therapist, but also on factors related with the patient, such as his/her attitudes, expectations, motivations and commitment to a process of change. One element that seems to characterize the identity of each member individually, but also the dynamic processes of interaction between the therapeutic dyad, is gender. For this reason, the article underlines the importance of gender in shaping the communication and cooperation between therapists and patients, while stating also that awareness of the gender dynamics, in combination with other identity characteristics, is a prerequisite for an effective and ethical practice.

Abstract:

Following detailed presentation of the Core Conflictual Relationship Theme (CCRT), there is the objective of relevant methods for what has been described as verbalization and visualization of data. Such is also termed data mining and text mining, and knowledge discovery in data. The Correspondence Analysis methodology, also termed Geometric Data Analysis, is shown in a case study to be comprehensive and revealing. Quite innovative here is how the analysis process is structured. For both illustrative and revealing aspects of the case study here, relatively extensive dream reports are used. The dream reports are from an open source repository of dream reports, and the current study proposes a possible framework for the analysis of dream report narratives, and further, how such an analysis could be relevant within the psychotherapeutic context. This Geometric Data Analysis here confirms the validity of CCRT method.

Full text

Abstract:

Talking about sexual feelings toward clients is still difficult for many mental health professionals. This is unfortunate, because exploring and talking about these feelings with peers (especially senior ones) or supervisors can help professionals to recognize, acknowledge, accept, and handle these feelings well. This focus group study explores the various factors that contribute to psychotherapists’ hesitancy to talk about these feelings. The analysis revealed two important impeding factors: the psychotherapists felt discomfortable and a safe environment was lacking. Young, less experienced psychotherapists and psychiatrists seemed to be most vulnerable. Furthermore, more profound sexual feelings were “disguised” in some cases by using a more acceptable narrative, such as “ intimate feelings,” which possibly also impeded acknowledgment and discussion of these feelings. These insights might help to open up the way for psychotherapists to explore and come forward with their sexual feelings and experiences.

Abstract:

Summary The present work focuses on the transformations of the psychotherapeutic field through the relationship dynamics which occur within it. The first part of this article starts with a brief outline of the Gestalt psychological understanding of the field concept, also in its application to the psychotherapeutic situation, followed by a brief review of the introduction of the field concept into the psychoanalytic theory formation. After this, the first author first presents the theoretical concept underlying a new approach he has developed for observing the relationship dynamics in psychotherapy. Mirroring a formation of both psychoanalytic and Gestalt theory of the main author, this new approach is based on the combination of psychoanalytic and Gestalt psychological concepts. According to the clinical experience and insights of the author, the phenomenological and relational approach of Gestalt theory fits well with the psychoanalytic approach; on this basis, a criterion for recording the progress of therapy can be developed. This criterion is the phenomenology of the development of the qualities of the relationships of the client, as they become visible in his dream narrations and the subsequent associations in the analysis room and continue to develop during the session and the further course of therapy. The relationship dynamics in the dream narration is thus compared with those which develop in the course of the subsequent associations. This is demonstrated and further elaborated in the second part of this article on the basis of a clinical case. The clinical example shows how the relationship dynamics develop in this sense in the individual therapy sessions and over a longer course of therapy. The associated transformations of the therapeutic field give a good indication of the progress of therapy. The main author gained such insights into the transformations of the therapeutic field and the progression of therapy, which are visible in the course of therapy, from the careful application of the criterion “MDAC of relational dynamics”. In the specific case, there was also a high degree of correspondence between the results of the application of this phenomenological criterion and the empirical evidence of the symptom questionnaire, a self-report measure requested by the patient himself during the course of the therapy.

Abstract:

Summary In this contribution, I discuss the relevance of epistemological models for psychotherapy. Despite its importance epistemology is seldom explicitly dealt with in the psychotherapeutic landscape. Based on the presentation of “Critical Realism (CR),” the epistemological position of Gestalt Theoretical Psychotherapy (GTP), I intend to show to which extent this explanatory model supports a differentiated understanding of problems between human beings, arising from the differences in experiencing “reality.” The presentation deals explicitly with some conclusions that can be drawn from the CR model for practical psychotherapeutic work. In particular, the aspects of basic therapeutic attitude, therapeutic relationship, and praxeology are highlighted.

Abstract:

Older adults exhibit psychotic symptoms for various reasons. Treatment may require medical and psychiatric intervention, family support, community services, etc. The role of psychotherapy, however, has received little attention. This article describes a psychotherapeutic approach to treating older adults with psychotic symptoms based on the literature and the authors’ own experience. The approach includes reaching out to identify individuals in need of help; clinical engagement to develop a working relationship; linkage with needed services; and helping individuals reduce the link between triggers and psychotic symptoms. Differences between treating a person with delusional disorder versus schizophrenia are discussed.

Abstract:

The care programme approach (CPA) should be implemented across all mental health services. However, the specific needs of psychotherapeutic settings were not recognised in the official documentation. The scope for conflict between therapeutic practices and CPA requirements may have increased following revision of CPA guidelines. A recent survey of consultants in psychotherapy confirmed that implementation of CPA remained uneven. The additional time required, threats to confidentiality and a negative impact on the therapeutic relationship were common concerns. Positive effects on assessment procedures and liaison between services were also reported. Practical suggestions for minimising potential negative effects of CPA are given. It is recommended that all services providing psychological therapies develop a written policy for the local implementation of CPA.

Abstract:

Mourning and reminiscence are therapeutic processes common in therapeutic work with the elderly. However, a theoretical explanation of why they are effective has been lacking. Personal construct theory accounts for both in terms of the search of elderly persons for validation of their construct systems. In this article, this explanation of the parallel psychotherapeutic processes is explored, together with relevant information from the literature on mourning and reminiscence. Therapeutic case studies illustrate the characteristics of the two processes and the relationship between them.

Abstract:

This article intends to highlight the importance of the psychotherapeutic relationship and the way with which it is viewed by the Existential-Humanistic approach to psychotherapy and counseling. The introduction includes a brief overview of the various existential approaches and the common way with which they all view therapy. The article continues by relating the basic premises of the Existential-Humanistic approach as well as its understanding of human beings and of the process of psychotherapy. Furthermore, the factors that contribute to the establishment of the psychotherapeutic relationship are being analyzed. The Existential-Humanistic approach to psychotherapy gives emphasis to the value of a true dialogue between two human beings who are there serving the interests of the one. In order for the therapeutic relationship to be effective there needs to be a clear framework that helps the members feel safe. In this “sanctuary” the two individuals have an “I-Thou” encounter. The “presence” of both parties serves as the catalyst for change through this mutual and honest way of relating.

Abstract:

Records of 52 Medicaid managed care psychiatric patients engaged in a home intervention program (HIP) were analyzed to determine (a) if home-based intervention reduced a participant’s readmission rates to an inpatient behavioral health facility and (b) if a negative relationship existed between total HIP sessions and readmissions following the implementation of home-based services. A paired t test comparing admissions 6 months prior to HIP with admissions 6 months after HIP demonstrated an average decrease of readmissions by 2.5 (p < .0001), or 86%. These results supported the hypothesis that HIP reduces participants’ readmission rates.

Abstract:

This study aimed twofold: 1) to study some positive variables (three paths to well-being, life satisfaction, overall well-being and meaning of life) in adult patients who are at different stages of a naturalistic cognitive behavioral psychotherapeutic treatment and 2) to analyze their relationship with the progress during treatment, therapeutic alliance and adherence to treatment from the therapist´s perspective. The sample was composed of 85 outpatients who were in psychotherapeutic treatment. Patients completed the Three Pathways to Well-being Scale, Meaning in Life Questionnaire, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Well-being Index and Symptom Checklist-90-Revised. Therapists completed treatment related data and an opinion survey of patient´s progress, adherence to treatment and therapeutic relationship. Findings showed positive variables to be higher at the final stage of psychotherapy, particularly higher satisfaction with life, engagement, well-being, and presence of meaning in life. Higher positive variables were moderately associated with more progress during treatment according to therapist’s perspective; however a low association was found with adherence to treatment and therapeutic relationship. No differences were found in positive variables according the type of prevalent symptoms.

Abstract:

From the relationship with the patient emerge feelings, doubts, fantasies, and fears that eventually escape from the inner world of a therapist. These are obstacles that often reflect blockages and fears, which also limit the release of the patient’s spontaneity. The article discusses the supervision with psychodramatic techniques as an element in the training and development of the therapist’s role, reporting a case study in the psychotherapeutic scope. Its objective is to highlight the dramatic game as a possibility of recognizing personal aspects of the supervisee that interfere in the psychotherapeutic process and the spontaneous-creative strategy of his interventions, integrating knowledge to the experiential dimension. The study concluded that the supervisee felt professionally safer, also recognizing the significant importance of the supervisor in this process.

Abstract:

Although forgiveness is viewed by many to be essential to the healing of emotional and relational pain, there typically has been very little treatment of it in the psychological literature. This article presents a brief discussion of the nature and function of forgiveness from a theological perspective, followed by an analysis of the process and dynamics of forgiveness from a psychological viewpoint. From an integrative synthesis of these concepts, specific application is made to understanding and facilitating forgiveness in the psychotherapeutic relationship.

Abstract:

Most of the scientific literature on computer games aimed at offering or aiding in psychotherapy provides little information on the relationship between the game’s design and the player’s cognitive processes. This article investigates the use of Bloom’s taxonomy in describing a psychotherapeutic game in terms of knowledge level and cognitive processing. It introduces the Revised Bloom Taxonomy and applies this to five psychotherapeutic games (Personal Investigator, Treasure Hunt, Ricky and the Spider, Moodbot, and SuperBetter) in a two-round procedure. In the first round consensus was reached on the Player Actions with Learning Objectives (PALOs) in each game. The second round sought to determine what level of knowledge and cognitive processing can be attributed to the PALOs by placing them in the taxonomy. Our low intercoder reliability in the second round indicates that Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy is not suitable to compare and contrast content between games.

Abstract:

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) presents with high levels of inattention, impulsiveness, and hyperactivity. ADHD starts in childhood and results in impairments that continue into adulthood. ADHD symptoms lead to decreased functionality in various life domains and result in poor academics, behavioral challenges, delayed independence, and strained relationships. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, persistent residual symptoms are common, highlighting the need for novel treatment strategies. This article aims to provide a review of the psychotherapeutic interventions available for teens that receive pharmacotherapy but continue to struggle with the residual symptoms of ADHD that interfere with academic function, relationship formation, and psychological development.

Abstract:

SUMMARY Since the time of Freud’s “Project for psychology as natural science” in 1895, at the dawn of psychoanalysis as the theory and therapy, psychoanalysis and psychotherapy in general have been attempting to establish and develop their biological roots. Numerous external and internal limitations and resistances have been limiting and opposing this process for almost a century. The last two decades brought a significant change in this view, especially following the development of contemporary neuroimaging techniques with their dynamic and functional features and growing interest for mental processes on behalf of neuroscience. The aim of this paper was to review scientific articles on recent advances in the field of neurobiology of psychotherapy, especially neurobiological underpinnings of psychotherapeutic relationship, and point to the new perspectives this knowledge brings. Recent advances in neurobiology and psychotherapy research open the way for the integration of psychotherapy and neurobiology. With this regard, science could contribute to closing the mind-brain gap which has been artificially dividing a human being for centuries. An integrated field enables new scientific perspective for both disciplines with multilayered understanding of mind-brain functioning.

Abstract:

This article provides an explanation of the origins and conceptualization of the term ‘intermediary object’, based on the clinical practice developed by Jaime Rojas-Bermúdez, with chronic psychotic patients sunk into self-absorption. Its characteristics and relationship with natural communication are presented as well as its applications in other psychotherapeutic contexts; this led us to conceptualize the intra-intermediary object and allowed us to work more effectively with objects in the psychodrama clinic.

Abstract:

Objectives: This paper explores the barriers and impediments to psychological change in those patients with borderline and narcissistic character pathology requiring long-term psychotherapeutic treatment. Method: Examination of the relevant literature was made and the author's clinical experience included. Results: Those patients with borderline and narcissistic character pathology requiring long-term psychotherapeutic treatment to achieve lasting psychological change are characterised by their experience of severe early developmental trauma. This has resulted in the formation of entrenched adverse relational patterns which are unconscious, difficult to bring into consciousness and slow to change. These patients have failed to establish security of attachment patterns in the course of a depriving and/or traumatic childhood, often in the care of parents with similar character pathology. Such patients will often require a therapeutic relationship with an emotionally responsive therapist sustained over time within a secure therapy frame to achieve lasting psychological change. Conclusions: Patients with borderline and narcissistic pathology who have sustained severe early developmental trauma will often require long-term psychotherapeutic treatment to achieve lasting psychological change. Such treatment is necessary for the relief of suffering in the patients, and may contribute to the alleviation or prevention of the intergenerational transmission of these disorders.

Full text

Abstract:

Anorexia nervosa is a diagnostic category that is more frequently found in younger women. In its basis is the difficulty of experiencing and mentalizing tension inside one's body. It occurs due to the conflicts arising from intrapsychic processes, on the one hand, and the penetration of patriarchal norms on the other. This paper relates anorexia nervosa to Lacan's jouissance or the so-called painful pleasure. Lacan's theory of understanding female sexuality is important for the feminist (psychotherapeutic) approach. How young women suffering from anorexia nervosa form a relationship with their body, and the degree to which we can speak of their capacity to achieve a pleasure principle is addressed in the second part of the paper. Finally, the paper offers a psychotherapeutic understanding of the directions that need to be followed when working with these clients.

Abstract:

SUMMARYCritical psychiatry has often been confused with what is widely known as ‘anti-psychiatry’. In this article the distinction is clarified and the particular contribution critical psychiatry makes is outlined. That contribution is constructive criticism: of the relationship between medicine and mental health practice, of the way drug and psychotherapeutic treatments for mental health difficulties might be better understood. These have implications for everyday clinical practice and there is much to be gained by openly embracing the controversies critical psychiatry highlights.LEARNING OBJECTIVES•Understand the origins of critical psychiatry and recognise some of the difficulties that arise from identifying psychiatry with medicine•Appreciate the differences between disease-centred and drug-centred approaches to prescribing psychiatric medication•Become aware of implications that arise from psychotherapeutic outcomes researchDECLARATION OF INTERESTSH.

Abstract:

This article describes the development and refinement of a measure designed to assess salient aspects of the psychotherapeutic process. The VPPS consists of seven scales which can be grouped under the headings of: Exploratory Processes, Patient Involvement, and Therapist-Offered Relationship. Its reliability and other psychometric properties are considered satisfactory so that the instrument can be recommended for operational use.
