Chapter 12.Intervening III: Integrating Supportive and Exploratory Interventions
Sections
Excerpt
In the preceding two chapters on intervention techniques, we discussed clarification, confrontation, and interpretation (Chapter 10) and transference analysis and the tactics guiding intervention (Chapter 11) in transference-focused psychotherapy—extended (TFP-E). We complete our discussion of clinical techniques in this chapter, in which we cover 1) the use of supportive techniques in TFP-E, followed by coverage of exploratory interventions with 2) management of technical neutrality, 3) use of countertransference, and 4) the process of working through. Although exploratory interventions are central to TFP-E, we begin with discussion of supportive interventions because their use may be needed first in the treatment flow, integrated with the exploratory interventions discussed later in this chapter.
