The request for hastened death by patients with psychiatric disorders poses a professional conundrum for psychiatrists. Issues of transference and countertransference loom large in such situations. Primitive defense mechanisms, particularly projective identification need to be addressed in understanding the request.

In occupational therapy, intersubjective movements unfold between the professional and the patient at several levels: in the therapeutic relationship, through the activity and within the institution. A psychodynamic reading of these movements helps to develop working hypotheses. When the person being cared for and the occupational therapist are from different cultures, specific unconscious relational movements are at work.

Through a clinical analysis of the cultural transfers and counter-transfers at play in the exchange between a nurse and a young unaccompanied minor, the authors propose a reflection on the question of transcultural encounters in healthcare. What recognition should be given to otherness, so as not to reduce the other to his or her difference, but rather to support him or her in the construction of an identity at the heart of the issue of métissage?

Introduction: Over the past few decades, psychotherapy research was dominated by testing the efficacy of "brand name" therapeutic techniques and models. Another line of research however, suggests that common factors, such as the therapeutic alliance and empathy, might play a greater role in effective therapy than specific therapeutic techniques and models.

Int J Group Psychother
October 2024
The authors explore the group leader's considerations before removing a group member from group sessions. The authors integrate an approach that warns against a too hasty decision without considering the group-as-a-whole dynamics and the possibility of scapegoating, with the approach that looks at the group therapist's countertransference that prevents them from considering the group's best interest. The rule of thumb the authors suggest is that when a severe breach of the group agreement happens, especially continuously, and when it cannot be followed by exploration, reflection, and an agreement by the group member who violated the agreement to make an effort to avoid repeating this event, the group leader might consider removing the person from the group.
