Discusses Luborsky's (psychiatry, U. of Pennsylvania) core-conflictual relationship theme (CCRT) method as a way of examining objectively the patient-therapist relationship during transference. Studies utilizing this technique are described and proposed as empirical evidence validating Freud's ideas regarding this key stage of therapy. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
I guess it is not what I have expected, my fault, didn’t really search for a review or anything. It is not about transference and the method in general, but more about how the ccrt was studied and developed, data and research, lots and lots of research. On the other hand it helped me clarify some aspects that were very flu in my head when I was practicing. Maybe would be mote helpful for somebody that doing research.
