  • Title: [Inpatient psychoanalytic treatment of sever personality disorders].
    Author: Tress W, Ehl M.
    Journal: Psychiatr Prax; 1987 Jul; 14(4):115-20. PubMed ID: 3615682.
    Abstract:
    Highlighting the development of in-patient psychoanalytical therapy the insufficiency of traditional therapeutical conceptions ("out-patient psychoanalysis in the hospital", "bipolar model of in-patient psychotherapy") in view of increasing numbers of patients with ego-structural disorders in psychosomatoses and borderline pathologies become clear. Their manifold splitting tendencies toward any conceptual distinction of the psychoanalytical session with its transferential processes on the one hand and the "actual" milieu of the ward on the other hand. This fact will be taken into account only by the integrative inpatient psychoanalytical therapy which contrasts the group of patients with the therapeutical team. Only this theoretical constellation may grasp the dynamic processes which the individual patient as well as the whole group of patients but also the individual therapist and his team are undergoing. On this basis interventions will become particularly effective. - The method is illustrated by a description of the setting and a casuistry. A necessary broadening in view of the patients' environment outside the ward and of the bounds of the procedure are described. - Summing up we can say that the integrative inpatient psychoanalytical treatment for the first time provides an approach to the group of severe personality disorders which up to now could not be treated and at best were exposed to an expert rating.
