Classical psychoanalysis had been viewed as a \"one-person\" enterprise, with one analyst interchangeable with another. Analysts’ experiences of countertransference reactions were viewed as unresolved conflicts, reasons to return to personal treatment, not inevitable and potentially informative about the current analytic work. This view began to shift in the 1980s, with Judy Kantrowitz’s work contributing to the development of the recognition that psychoanalysis was a \"two-person\" process. In this collection of her most significant papers, Kantrowitz explores the importance of the match, which refers to observable styles, attitudes and personal characteristics that may be rooted in residual and unanalyzed conflicts, triggered in any patient-analyst pair. \u003cem\u003eMatch\u003c\/em\u003e is neither a predictive nor static concept. Rather it refers to the unfolding transaction that itself that may shift and change during the course of analytic work. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePulling together the history of the shift in theory from the one-person to two-person understanding of the psychoanalytic enterprise, \u003cem\u003eThe Role of the Patient-Analyst Match in the Process and Outcome of Psychoanalysis\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003ewill be of great interest to contemporary psychoanalysts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45565432299758,"sku":"9780367483500","price":55.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780367483500_b61c9432-1198-431d-8c85-324b6019f371.jpg?v=1720679167","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/role-of-the-patient-analyst-match-in-the-process-and-outcome-of-psychoanalysis-paperback-softback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
