The initial psychoanalytic interaction
Once a week frequency
Paranoia and the object of dread
Couples treatment and the quest for analytic contact
Stumbling in the counter-transference
Catching my balance in the counter-transference
Combative and reactive patients
Embedded enactments and emotional truth
The limits of our value and the value of our limits
Keeping the faith when working with turbulent patients
Phantasies of dread, demand, and desire
Captured and absorbed into the familiar
The give and take in projective identification.
