Abstract

The purpose is to frame a challenging indictment against interpretation as a therapeutic method. This includes interpretation in general, whether meeting or failing to meet the criteria of adequate interpretation. Based on both the clinical and research literatures, the thesis is that interpretations serve to enhance the elevated role of the therapist as grand interpreter whose pronouncements are to be valued by the client. It is concluded that progress in the art and science of psychotherapy invites the exploration and development of alternative therapeutic methods.
