Kohn The paper offers an original description of Balint Group methodology and its relevance for training psychiatrists. Central is the understanding that the psychiatrist presents his clinical problem with the patient. Making the doctor’s counter-transference central to the process moves it away from being supervision i.e., the technical acquisition of skills. This is key for Balint, for whom acquiring psychodynamics “entails a limited, though considerable change in the doctor’s personality.” This paper is a tribute to developing Balint’s ideas and offering graphic vignettes of the difficulty and value of working with psychiatrists in this way. The author is a Training and Supervising analyst at the British Psychoanalytical Society. | | MP3 | | $10.00 | | $10.00 | |
