ABSTRACT

In this chapter, nineteen treatment interviews with a ten-year-old boy will be discussed in detail. Through this material, the therapeutic process can be studied as a continuing movement within the structure of a relationship that has a beginning, an intermediate phase, and an ending. Some of the material from the mother’s interviews will also be included since the problem was closely interwoven with the mother’s attitudes, and since her active participation was an important part of the progress of this case.
