About this title

Synopsis

This volume presents transcripts of seminars conducted at the Los Angeles Psychoanalytic Institute in 1959 by Ralph R. Greenson, on the techniques involved in the assessment and initial interviewing of patients. On the facing pages, annotations by Jaffee (psychiatry, UC San Diego) contrast the psychotherapeutic approach of the late 1950s with contemporary psychiatry as it contends with managed care. Sample topics include helping the patient to feel at ease, facilitating the establishment of an object relationship, and appraising the motivation of the patient.
