Example text
Interested in what kind of retrospective insight might take shape over time, I approached twenty colleagues who were more than a decade beyond training and asked them to reflect on what influenced the training choices they made. These American colleagues attended institutes in large cities that provided multiple training options to choose from. In open-ended interviews I asked them to think about the factors influencing their choice of institute and theory while trying to get a sense of their dynamic self-understanding (then and now).
Anne increasingly used the treatment space in a more elastic way that encompassed its paradoxical qualities (Ghent, 1992). She had me and she didn’t have me. Anne began to let go, bit by bit, of the notion that a new maternal relationship would repair what she felt she lacked. Pizer (1998) described a similar process: Simply by being there and remaining there . . the therapist gives the patient a chance to precipitate a multiplicity of feelings into the continuity of one abiding relationship .
Managed care and shattered illusions Protective illusions aren’t easily sustained when the treatment relationship exists under the aegis, indeed, at the whim, of a third party. In the United States, many patients’ access to mental health coverage is limited not only by a yearly dollar cap, but by the requirement for recertification of “need” at intervals as frequent as every six sessions. Managed care disrupts the therapeutic relationship by introducing an unwanted third element into the intimate two-person field.
