April 24, 2020 — Post-analytic contact
[30 pages]
If termination were termination, why would there be any further contact with the analysand? The Roose et al. survey showed that whatever psychoanalytic theory might be cited, it is common practice to have some form of contact with analytic patients after termination. Schachter illustrates aspects of post-termination contact with case examples.
