Bridges and barriers in the psychodynamic treatment of personality disorders
Introduction: Therapist responsiveness promotes favorable treatment outcomes and contributes to a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of change in psychodynamic psychotherapy for patients with personality pathology. At the same time, non-responsiveness may disrupt the clinical process and undermine the conditions for meaningful therapeutic progress. Design: This study examined therapist responsiveness and non-responsiveness in psychodynamic tr…
The Impact of Government-Funded Brief Psychological Interventions on Mental Health
The COVID-19 pandemic amplified an ongoing mental health crisis in Europe. In response, the Italian Ministry of Health introduced the “Psychological Bonus,” a government-funded initiative aimed at improving access to brief psychological interventions (BPIs). This longitudinal study examined the effectiveness of these publicly funded BPIs in reducing psychological distress, anxiety, and depression among a large sample of Italian patients, while al…
How we (do not) trust
Defining and measuring epistemic trust and its disruptions have significantly enriched recent empirical research, broadening the attachment and mentalization theory paradigm to understand how epistemic stances inform individual and interpersonal functioning. While numerous studies have explored their relationships with different psycho(patho)logical dimensions, the interplay between epistemic stances and defense mechanisms remains largely unexplo…
As fragments of a vessel
Case-writing is always poised between the wish to convey clinical truth and the duty to protect the patient's privacy. In the digital age, where clinical material circulates widely and remains permanently accessible, this tension has become more acute. We argue that anonymisation should not be reduced to the concealment of details regarding our patients but understood as a transformation process akin to mentalisation: a way of reshaping raw exper…
The logic of the symptom
Recent years, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic, have seen a marked increase in suicidal behavior and thoughts among children, symptoms that can be alarming both for parents and psychotherapists. This study presents a single case of a 9-year-old boy who sought therapy after two suicide attempts, aiming to illustrate the benefits of a comprehensive psychodynamic assessment. This approach allowed to shift from an excessive focus on sympt…
Personality, Defenses, Mentalization, and Epistemic Trust Related to Pandemic Containment Strategies and the Covid-19 Vaccine
Recognizing and understanding dysfunctional psychological pathways associated with individuals' difficulties in dealing with the pandemic are crucial for developing tailored mental-health interventions and promoting best practices in healthcare services
Effects of Covid-19 Epidemic Lockdown on Postpartum Depressive Symptoms in a Sample of Italian Mothers
The extraordinary health emergency of the COVID-19 pandemic represents a new challenge for mental health researchers and clinical practitioners. The related containment measures may be a risk factor for psychological distress and mood disorders, especially in at-risk populations. This study aims to explore the impact of COVID-19 on postpartum depressive symptoms in mothers with children below 1 year of age. An online questionnaire survey was ther…
