  • Melanie Klein's Concept of Counter-Transference Taken From
    7 Melanie Klein’s Concept of Counter-Transference Taken from Unpublished Material Esmeralda Macedo, Carlos Amaral Dias In this essay we discuss the concept of counter-transference based on some of Melanie Klein’s unpublished notes from the archives in the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine, in London. Hence, the discussion here incorporates material that has never been published be- fore1. Until 1950 the most commonly accepted conception of counter- -transference was that of Freud, who saw it as an obstacle that should be removed. When Paula Heimann’s ideas became widely known this mechanism started to be seen as an important aid to understanding the patient. Klein always rejected that perspective and remained close to Freud’s ideas. In the 1960s, the works of Bion and Money-Kyrle show that, along with the concept of projective identification, counter-transfe- rence was a valuable tool for understanding the patient in both its patho- logical and benign forms. What we show in this article is that in spite of not having conceptualized her ideas about the subject, Klein’s approach to it was very much in accordance with those authors with respect to the vicissitudes of the therapeutic relationship. 1 Researched by Emeralda Macedo for her PhD thesis prepared under the supervision of Professor Carlos Amaral Dias and Professor Rui Aragão Oliveira (Instituto Superior de Psicologia Aplicada/Universidade Nova de Lisboa, February 2007). Interações número 19. pp. 7-21. © do Autor 2010 8 Interações SOME PERSPECTIVES OF COUNTER-TRANSFERENCE One of the most important conceptions of counter-transference was Paula Heimann’s formulation, published in 1950.

  • A Brief History of the British Psychoanalytical Society
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE BRITISH PSYCHOANALYTICAL SOCIETY Ken Robinson When Ernest Jones set about establishing psychoanalysis in Britain, two intertwining tasks faced him: establishing the reputation of psychoanalysis as a respectable pursuit and defining an identity for it as a discipline that was distinct from but related to cognate disciplines. This latter concern with identity would remain central to the development of the British Society for decades to come, though its inflection would shift as the Society sought first to mark out British psychoanalysis as having its own character within the International Psychoanalytical Association, and then to find a way of holding together warring identities within the Society. Establishing Psychoanalysis: The London Society Ernest Jones’ diary for 1913 contains the simple entry for October 30: “Ψα meeting. Psycho-med. dinner” (Archives of the British Psychoanalytical Society, hereafter Archives). This was the first meeting of the London Psychoanalytical Society. In early August Jones had returned to London from ignominious exile in Canada after damaging accusations of inappropriate sexual conduct in relation to children. Having spent time in London and Europe the previous year, he now returned permanently, via Budapest where from June he had received analysis from Ferenczi. Once in London he wasted no time in beginning practice as a psychoanalyst, seeing his first patient on the 14th August (Diary 1913, Archives), though he would soon take a brief break to participate in what would turn out to be a troublesome Munich Congress in September (for Jones’s biography generally, see Maddox [2006]). Jones came back to a London that showed a growing interest in unconscious phenomena and abnormal psychology.

  • Introduction to Psychoanalysis
    Introduction to Psychoanalysis The psychoanalytic movement has expanded and diversified in many directions over its one hundred year history. Introduction to Psychoanalysis: Contemporary Theory and Practice examines the contributions made by the various schools of thought, explaining the similarities and differences between Contemporary Freudian, Independent, Kleinian, Object Relations, Interpersonal, Self Psychological and Lacanian analysis. The authors address crucial questions about the role of psychoanalysis in psychiatry and look ahead to the future. The book is divided into two parts covering theory and practice. The first part considers theories of psychological development, transference and countertransference, dreams, defence mechanisms, and the various models of the mind. The second part is a practical introduction to psychoanalytic technique with specific chapters on psychoanalytic research and the application of psychoanalytic ideas and methods to treating psychiatric illness. Well referenced and illustrated throughout with vivid clinical examples, this will be an invaluable text for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in psychoanalysis and psychoanaltytic psychotherapy, and an excellent source of reference for students and professionals in psychiatry, psychology, social work, and mental health nursing. Anthony Bateman is Consultant Psychotherapist, St Ann’s Hospital, London and a member of the British Psychoanalytical Society. Jeremy Holmes is Consultant Psychotherapist and Psychiatrist, North Devon.

  • Understanding Psychotherapists' Experience of Ongoing Learning
    Understanding Psychotherapists’ Experience of Ongoing Learning A Hermeneutic Phenomenology Study Kerry L. Thomas-Anttila A thesis submitted to Auckland University of Technology in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) 2017 Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences Auckland University of Technology New Zealand Primary Supervisor: Professor Elizabeth Smythe Second Supervisor: Dr Deborah Spence i Abstract This study explores the phenomenon of psychotherapists’ experience of ongoing learning. Psychotherapy has a clinical case-based history and, therefore, a knowledge base that is founded on clinical work. Amongst psychotherapists themselves there is a tacit understanding that the ongoing learning of psychotherapy goes hand-in-hand with the practising of psychotherapy, including thinking about the work. This latter can often take the form of reading about, writing about, or discussing clinical case reports or studies. Such forms of learning are, however, regarded poorly in the mainstream research arena. Where does this place psychotherapists themselves? Is something amiss with how therapists are educated and continue to learn? This is the basis of a very lively debate in psychotherapy literature and the impetus for my exploring this phenomenon by way of speaking with psychotherapists about their own experiences of ongoing learning. The 12 participants were purposefully selected for their willingness to participate and their ability to articulate their learning experiences. Participants’ narratives were captured via audio-taped interviewing and “stories” of learning emerged. I have offered an interpretation of the therapists’ narratives, within the ontological framework of hermeneutic phenomenology and drawing from the writings of Heidegger [1889-1976], Gadamer [1900-2002], and Arendt [1906-1975].

  • The Memory of Feeling: Envy and Happiness
    Pastoral Psychol DOI 10.1007/s11089-013-0555-3 The Memory of Feeling: Envy and Happiness Jaco J. Hamman # Springer Science+Business Media New York 2013 Abstract This essay explores how happiness is maintained as a memory of the first relationship and when that memory is disturbed, envy can set in. Envy is the angry feeling that another person possesses and enjoys something desirable—the envious impulse being to take it away or to spoil it. The thought of Melanie Klein and her 1957 work, Envy and Gratitude, guides the inquiry. Happiness in one person can offend when another experiences the happiness as goodness of life that is being withheld from them. Since all persons carry the memory of happiness, seeing the happiness of others reminds us of something once owned or experienced, but now lost. Envy becomes a defense against the painful memory of happiness once known. The biblical figure King Saul is identified as someone who experienced envy in the face of a young David’s happiness. Envy not only robs a person of happiness, it removes a sense of gratitude. Keywords David . Envy. Gratitude . Happiness . Melanie Klein . Saul Introduction In 100 Years of Happiness,CarlinandCapps(2012) write that Saint Augustine was concerned with the question of happiness. He came to the conclusion that “we all had happiness once upon a time. In other words, happiness is somewhere in our memories” (p. xvii). What happens if the memory of happiness in a person is awakened and possibly disturbed? This is the foundational question that drives this essay. If we all have memories of happiness, as Augustine, Capps, Carlin, and many others argue, then memories of happiness may be stirred—or more pertinently, disturbed—especially by the happiness one witnesses in someone else.

  • Some Thoughts from a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist
    A personal reflection on countertransference 50 Free Associations: Psychoanalysis and Culture, Media, Groups, Politics Number 68, November 2015 ISSN: 2047-0622 URL: www.freeassociations.org.uk ALIVE MOMENTS: A PERSONAL REFLECTION ON WHAT COUNTERTRANSFERENCE MEANS Robert Hinshelwood Abstract: A reflective piece on Betty Joseph and the notion of countertransference. For a few years, shortly after I qualified as a psychoanalyst, I attended the Workshop that Betty Joseph ran more or less throughout her career. I did not make much of a contribution to the discussion, as I recall, being perhaps too young and experienced in the business at the time. So I got more from it than I gave, nevertheless what I did give, over the years, has been a commitment to her central idea. I remember on one occasion, maybe around 1980, she said she had been asked about publishing her collected papers, and she had replied (she said), “You mean my collected paper!”. In fact her collected papers were published in 1989, as a kind of musical variation on a theme. Her 'one paper' was in 1975, 'The patient who is hard to reach'. It was just be before I had qualified. It addressed a particular form of resistance. All patients resist their analysis, we all have an unconscious to protect, to the ultimate. As analysts therefore we all flounder in a situation where we assume that our patient's come for the insights we can offer, whilst the patient (at least his unconscious) comes with the intention to find help in supporting his unconscious defensiveness. Being at cross-purposes like this with each other is common enough.

  • Klein in Scotland I & II
    Melanie Klein Trust Klein in Scotland I & II By Dr John Shemilt, Member, British Psychoanalytic Society and Scottish Association of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapists Presented at: Before and Beyond Words: Exploring Melanie Klein’s Work and Influence Organised by the Royal College of Psychiatrists in Scotland Medical Psychotherapy Faculty in conjunction with the Melanie Klein Trust, 24-25 November 2017, Pitlochry Festival Theatre ---------------------------------------------- Klein in Scotland I Today and tomorrow I am going to give some personal reflections on the place of Melanie Klein’s work in Pitlochry, where it fits in the evolution of her clinical thinking, and some of the possibly less well known ways in which Klein, Scotland and Scottish psychoanalysis are interwoven. 30 years ago in 1987 Hanna Segal came to Pitlochry. On Saturday 2nd of May we gathered for a ceremony at the Girl Guide Hut on Well Brae, one of the lanes that ascend to the north east of the town. Hanna Segal, representing the Melanie Klein Trust and the British Psychoanalytical Society, unveiled a plaque commemorating Melanie Klein’s use of the Girl Guide Hut as a playroom. This is where she analysed her ten-year-old patient “Richard” during the war years 1940 and 1941, described session by session in the Narrative of a Child Analysis (Klein, 1961). From the 1970’s until the early 2000’s the Pitlochry residential conference met twice a year, in spring and autumn organised by the Scottish Psychotherapy 1 Melanie Klein Trust Section of the Royal College. People came from a wide range of psychiatric, psychotherapy and psychoanalytic work, in both child and adult settings.
