Abstract

Abstract In early February 1982 the Philadelphia Child Guidance Clinic hosted an overflow “happening” billed simply as “Trialogue.” Three master therapists demonstrated their clinical work and shared reactions and theoretical formulations with each other, Whitaker, who at that time was a professor-in-residence at the clinic, carried the existential viewpoint, while Minuchin, working on his home ground, displayed his structural approach. From Italy, Mara Selvini-Palazzoli brought the newest revision of her paradoxical magic, and the consequences of this multiple input are excitingly and pen-etratingly reported by Virginia Goldner, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Her previous work at the Philadelphia Child Guidance Clinic gives us an especially refined lens through which to review this unique conference.
