Forming and Transforming Self-Experience

Abstract: This article addresses the formation and transformation of self-experience with a central emphasis on therapeutic change. Focusing on motivation and organization of experience and their emergence within the analystpatient dyadic system, the author develops a theory of therapeutic action that involves two fundamental pathways of analytic change that operate in tandem: the explicit mutually exploratory/reflective avenue to therapeutic change and the co-creation of new relational experience.

“…Although answer to that question can vary by perspective, I would like to accentuate two forms of empathetic listening-subject-centered and other-centered listening-that seem critical to any effective psychoanalytic supervision process. Nearly 20 years ago, Fosshage (1995Fosshage ( , 1997 first described these listening perspectives and their immense treatment/supervision value, and he continues to ably do so today (Fosshage, 2011(Fosshage, , 2013. Subject-centered (or the empathic mode of) listening involves effort to understand from within the perspective of the supervisee or patient.…”

“…For my purposes here, the self—often referred to as a sense of self in contemporary self psychology (Fosshage, 2013)—will be defined as “a multidimensional structured subjectivity that is always involved in transformational processes” (Riker, 2013, p. 501). Increasingly viewed within intersubjective space, the self is no longer seen as an isolated, static entity but rather as an active and interactive relational singularity: The self “is highly singular, yet intrinsically bound in a web of social relations; .…”

“…Ya al final de su trayectoria (1984, libro póstumo) se inclinó aún más por considerar al self como la experiencia subjetiva que se tiene de uno mismo. Posteriormente, los psicólogos del self, se refieren a este desde la cualidad de la experiencia del sí mismo, definiendo la salud como el estado de vitalización del self, esto es, el sentirse a uno mismo integrado y cohesivo en el tiempo, vigorizado y vital (Fosshage, 2013;Sassenfeld, 2011) 5 Los selfobjetos son objetos que tienen la principal función de sustentar al self.

Expresándolo en un sentido más amplio, todos estos discursos científicos clarifican y expanden nuestro entendimiento acerca de la formación y transformación de procesos organizadores (Fosshage, 2013). Aunque las implicaciones clínicas de estos nuevos conocimientos son revolucionarias cuanto menos, su descripción, integración y la Mi intención en la ponencia de esta noche es centrarme más específicamente en el supuesto técnico del psicoanálisis tradicional que supone que el foco principal, sino exclusivo, se centra en la transferencia de la relación analítica.…”
