ABSTRACT
Developmental dialogue gives us the opportunity to look forward and not exclusively backwards and to bring movement rather than petrification to the patient’s experience in therapy.
(Malcolm Pines 1996:11)
Foulkes . . . opened up the transforming power of communication, theorised as the opening up, the ever-widening and deepening of a group ‘matrix’, a horizontal perspective conjoined with the more traditional vertical perspective of individual psychoanalysis.
