Résumé :
|
What is original about her work is the way in which the developing thread of Dr Molnos' intellectual interest in disparate areas is woven into a powerful argument that challenges prejudice and the collusive avoidance of the truth of human suffering. Hers is a deeply analytic, psychodynamic approach. She describes and explains tellingly the bias against brief dynamic psychotherapy, at the same time stressing the importance of actively challenging resistance and working through the transference. Dr Molnos describes well the committed and engaged attitude required of the therapist. The clinical examples are short but compelling. She stresses the importance of using anger in a positive way, even from the first session - an ability that characterizes what she calls "The Relentless Healer". But for brief dynamic psychotherapy to be effective, Dr Molnos insists that confrontation has to be simultaneously balanced by holding even from the start.
