However, when using transcripts from transference therapies in FEST we could not find interventions sufficiently illustrating poor timing.
Training can be based on effective therapeutic methods for treating patients with BPD [ 43, 44], such as Transference-focused therapy [ 45], Mentalization-based treatment [ 46], Schema therapy [ 47] and DBT [ 48].
In mentalization-based therapy transference is not understood as a repetition of earlier ways of relations, and interpretations based on unconscious processes are not part of the therapy.
How to analyze and interpret transference patterns revealed during therapy and their impact on in-session process and long-term outcome, have been discussed.
In a RCT which compared Schema Therapy and Transference Focused Psychotherapy (TFP) [ 1] both therapies showed a significant change in patients' personality, also at 1-year follow up [ 22].
What is really going on are things that we are denying or repressing or sublimating or projecting onto the therapist by the mechanism of transference, and the goal of therapy is to bring those things to light.
Beneath many of the pages are brief notes explaining some of therapy's terms and processes (transference, counter-transference, intervention).
Psychoanalysis is indeed part of the mental-health fabric of the 21st century and continues to provide a foundation, with contributions like the understanding of the unconscious and of transference, from which many other therapies have drawn and continue to draw.
Once the transference has been addressed in the therapy room, "the patient can come to terms with what they are projecting onto me, and the reality that I am not the person they have turned me into".
Several guidelines [ 2, 15- 19] recommend outpatient psychotherapy such as Transference Focused Psychotherapy [ 20, 21], Dialectical Behaviour Therapy [ 22], Schema-Focused Therapy [ 23], and Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT) [ 3] for BPD.
