Abstract
ABSTRACTA case vignette involving contemporary communications technology—an iPhone, a computer, digital photos, and Skype—suggests that unconscious communications are not only repetitions of the patient’s ongoing experience and dynamics, but may also be prospective, expressing emerging emotional and psychological potentials that were previously unavailable to the patient. These communications may also provide direction for the treatment via the analyst’s countertransference fantasies and responses. It is also suggested that these bidirectional communications are shared between patient and analyst through an unconscious field akin to what Jung posited as a collective unconscious.
