Abstract

In this article, I will present the contribution of the conductor’s self-disclosure of negative countertransference in group analytic psychotherapy and its advantage over interpretation in the working through of projective identification that leads to a therapeutic impasse. I will also discuss the issues of timing of self-disclosure and spontaneity versus judicious self-disclosure. The presented ideas will be demonstrated through vignettes from analytic groups that I conduct.
