Transference Cure Stages of Cure

description

Here, the client substitutes the psychotherapist for the original parent. She now sees the psychotherapist as fulfilling a role in her script. But she experiences him as doing so in a more benign way than the actual parent did. The client may experience considerable relief from child fears and anxieties now that she has this more benevolent parent to relate to.

Cure according to Berne

• Cure is a progressive process than a once off process.

• Cure is a matter of progressively learning to exercise new choices.

• The client will likely pass through a series of stages of improvement, distinct in their nature although the boundaries between them might not be sharply recognizable.

Cure according to Berne• Each stage represented a

genuine gain as compared to the one before it.

• Therapist and client might agree to terminate treatment at any one of these way stages if the client found it satisfactory.

• However, only the last stage represented the most fundamental degree of change in the client.

Stage 3 – Transference Cure• Here, the client substitutes the

psychotherapist for the original parent. She

now sees the psychotherapist as fulfilling a

role in her script.

• But she experiences him as doing so in a

more benign way than the actual parent did.

• The client may experience considerable relief

from child fears and anxieties now that she

has this more benevolent parent to relate to.

Stage 3 – Transference Cure

• She may also break free from some of her

original destructive parental messages,

substituting for them the positive

messages she takes on board from the

psychotherapist.

• This stage , however, does not represent

the final goal of cure, since the client still

has to keep the psychotherapist around in

her head in order to maintain her change.

Stage 3 – Transference Cure• Berne acknowledged the work of the

psychoanalyst Fenichel (1945) in elucidating

the nature of such “transference

improvement”.

• A diagnostic clue of this third stage of cure is

that the client will shift the main focus of the

game – playing on to the psychotherapist.

• Often, this will be accompanied by a

corresponding reduction in game – playing

outside the therapy room.
