Title: What the analyst does not hear. Author: Grossman L. Journal: Psychoanal Q; 1999 Jan; 68(1):84-98. PubMed ID: 10029974. Abstract: In the clinical situation, the analyst fails to hear more than he or she hears and spends much time working in the dark. The author raises questions about how we can take cognizance of that state of affairs in our thinking about analytic work. A clinical example illustrates how, in an analytic atmosphere, a patient will correct an analyst's failure to hear. Some ideas are offered about how to maximize the patient's participation in that effort. The author suggests that the problem may not fall precisely under the heading of technique so much as reflecting the analyst's attitude.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
