NOTING THAT THE PATIENT HAS “SUCCEEDED IN…” OR HAS BEEN “CAPABLE OF….”. THE DECLARATION AND VALORIZATION OF ANALYTIC PROGRESS. THE SIMPLE “REPETITION OF WHAT THE PATIENT HAS SAID” (WITH THE INEVITABLE ADDITION OF THE ANALYST's “PRECONSCIOUS RESONANT NUANCES”). THE SIMPLE “REPETITION OF WHAT THE PATIENT HAS SAID” (WITH THE INEVITABLE ADDITION OF THE ANALYST's “PRECONSCIOUS RESONANT NUANCES”).
