Who Is the Author Speaking To? The Impact of the Intended Audience on Theoretical Framing of Clinical Material: Reply to Commentaries

  • In providing the background to a pivotal session, Stuart Pizer reveals his clinical work as an unsupervised neophyte, prior to his own analysis and analytic training. These early therapeutic efforts were flawed, leaving Pizer at times >grimacing with mortification 26 years after the fact.< But they were also extraordinarily helpful to the patient. Schaffer discusses the challenge of supervising similarly talented beginners: how does one teach psychoanalysis without desiccating a treatmen? How does one teach a relational approach, with no >basic model< and few rules, to a beginning analyst infused with an unformulated, yet often passionate, sense of what is >curative<? Pizer recognizes that were he to meet the same patient today, he would not conduct the same treatment. Now trained and analyzed, not to mention more cautious and >worldweary,< Pizer would not do what he did then. But what if he were the supervisor then? Schaffer concludes her discussion by asking Pizer how he, now a seasoned analyst, would supervise his early therapist self.
