  • Title: [The first interview and construction of the psychodynamic hypothesis].
    Author: Peter D.
    Journal: Schweiz Arch Neurol Psychiatr (1985); 1992; 143(3):255-64. PubMed ID: 1378976.
    Abstract:
    The development of psychoanalitic short term therapy confirms the importance of the first interview for estimating the expectations of the patient and elaborating the first hypothesis. The therapist is immediately caught in the dynamics of pretransference and precountertransference. He depends upon the comprehension of his own emotional reactions to understand the actual affection and the nodal conflict. The psychodynamic hypothesis should be inferred from what both the patient and the therapist are saying and acting.
