[43 pages]
Donnel Stern represents the interpersonal perspective that was developed at the White Institute. He identifies 3 models of therapeutic action that are used in psychoanalysis: interpretive, developmental/provisional, and mutual influence. Can you identify each of these approaches in the clinical material presented in Steven Stern’s description of a challenging clinical case? What are the strengths and weaknesses of each kind of intervention?
