“…Ferenczi's theory of analyst self-disclosure can provide the analyst with a theoretical framework for this kind of intervention. His theory of emotional trauma provides a rationale for analyst self-disclosure, both when difficult analysands demand analyst transparency and when the analyst initiates the disclosure to create an empathic climate in the analytic situation (Ferenczi, 1928(Ferenczi, , 1932(Ferenczi, , 1933.…”

“…The use of this type of intervention is only meaningful in a method that places a central emphasis on the role of empathy. The empathic method can serve the analytic process during the relationshipbuilding, uncovering, and working through phases of treatment (Ferenczi, 1928(Ferenczi, , 1932(Ferenczi, , 1933Kohut, 1971Kohut, , 1977Kohut, , 1978Kohut, , 1984Rogers, 1951Rogers, , 1959Rogers, , 1961). An analysis that emphasizes the empathic method should precede the analyst's self-disclosure.…”

“…Ferenczi (1928) was the first to note that the traditional analytic stance of passive observance and analysis of resistance could create a kind of "professional hypocrisy," whereby the analyst does not take responsibility for a negative transference as something he or she helped create. It was his idea that such one-sided experiences in the analysis help create a situation similar to the original childhood trauma, where the parent did not admit he or she was actually causing the emotional disturbance.…”

“…It became perfectly clear to Ferenczi, as it later did to Kohut, that this kind of clinical work demanded an additional dimension of psychoanalysis. Ferenczi (1928) proposed the Rule of Empathy for psychoanalysis. The use of empathy was to stand beside the previous guideposts that had been accepted as standard psychoanalytic technique: the rules of free association, abstinence, and genetic reconstruction.…”

“…Ferenczi (1928) realized that there were moments when, in order to continue empathic understanding, the analyst might need to make his or her own functioning a part of the interaction.…”

The authors have preserved the format of their original presentation where Anne Tyndale described the conceptualizations that characterize the Independent approach: namely, their reliance on the living experience offered by the analytic frame illuminated by timely interpretation. Interpretation emerges from the experience of listening – to the analysand and to the analyst's own psychic movements. In this context, premature interpretations of the transference are purposely avoided, as they risk creating a superimposed and artificial dynamic between analysand and analyst. Viqui Rosenberg illustrates the approach and offers her reflections.

Fresh old news from Ferenczi about the function of dreams: The dream as a Kur, as a treatment and as a Gyógyászat

This article discusses a text on the function of dreams and their relation to trauma. Ferenczi intended to present this material as a talk at the 12th International Congress of Psychoanalysis, which was to take place in Interlaken, Switzerland the same year that he wrote it (1931). The entire conference, however, was postponed, and parts of this communication's content appeared in other texts in which Ferenczi rethinks the concept of trauma and its clinical significance. In the present article the author makes use of the Freud/Ferenczi correspondence to contextualize Freud's Hungarian follower's originality regarding his theorizations about different aspects of the function of dreams. In the 1931 speech, as well as in this article, Ferenczi used a patient's dream work as a clinical example of a process in which traumatic experiences and unmastered sensory impressions can be repeated to achieve a better working-through for the dreamer. The process Ferenczi describes resembles an effort of self-treatment, of self-Kur.
