The Person in the Analyst’s Chair
Sander Abend’s classic paper “Countertransference and Psychoanalytic Technique” can be read as both a historical review of ideas about countertransference, and an example of a historical moment in the ongoing evolution of thinking about the use of the analyst’s self. The view of the analyst’s participation in the process has moved from observer, to actor in the transference-countertransference, to the present-day interest in the role of the analy…

The Object-Preserving Function of Sadomasochism
The terms sadism, masochism, and sadomasochism seem to have become increasingly, if loosely, associated with aggression in psychoanalytic discourse. This is due in part to the fact that Freud's changing ideas generated confusion about the relative contributions of libido and aggression. The author reviews Freud's variable usage and offers a clinical vignette to illustrate the importance of noticing how sadomasochism may maintain a tie to the obje…

What the Analyst Does Not Hear
In the clinical situation, the analyst fails to hear more than he or she hears and spends much time working in the dark. The author raises questions about how we can take cognizance of that state of affairs in our thinking about analytic work. A clinical example illustrates how, in an analytic atmosphere, a patient will correct an analyst's failure to hear. Some ideas are offered about how to maximize the patient's participation in that effort. T…
A Note on Empathy and the Analyst’s Transference
The Analyst’s Influence
Analytic work involves a variety of influences the analyst brings to bear on the patient. Our emphasis on the centrality of interpretation tends to neglect consideration of the many ways in which the analyst influences the patient other than by the content of interpretation. The author considers the kinds of influence necessary to establish and maintain an analytic process and a therapeutic alliance. The nature and the role of the analyst's autho…
A Woman with a Nipple Fetish
Over sixty years ago, Rado (1933) suggested that a woman could experience castration anxiety with respect to a fantasied penis. The following vignette is offered as a possible illustration of that phenomenon
Contemporary Theories of Female Sexuality
The Perverse Attitude Toward Reality
Freud's (1940a) tentative distinction between the defensive maneuvers in neurosis and those in perversion can be extended to good clinical effect. In general, neurotic defenses may be thought of as directed against wishes, whereas perverse defenses are directed against perceived reality. It is suggested that the perverse approach to reality is not limited to frank sexual perversions; it defines a class of operations that involve taking certain li…
