  • Title: The Development of Transference-Focused Psychotherapy and Its Model of Supervision.
    Author: Yeomans F, Caligor E, Diamond D.
    Journal: Am J Psychother; 2023 Mar 01; 76(1):46-50. PubMed ID: 36353848.
    Abstract:
    Transference-focused psychotherapy (TFP) is an empirically based, manualized psychodynamic psychotherapy that emerged as an adaptation of psychoanalytic techniques to meet the needs of patients with personality pathology. As it became more clearly defined through a series of treatment manuals and empirical research, TFP has also come to be considered a conceptual and technical model of therapy that can be used to introduce therapists in training to the principles of psychodynamic psychotherapy in a systematic way. Advanced levels of TFP training and practice involve an emphasis on supervision that is applied in a more structured way than traditional psychodynamic supervision, while respecting the depth and subtlety of psychoanalytic exploration. This article reviews the development of the treatment model and the supervisory process that guides the therapist to carry out TFP in accordance with its proposed mechanism of change.
