Abstract

The inter-individual relationship between analyst and patient has been the basic premise for all the therapeutic orientations of psychoanalysis and analysis: resistance, transference, and counter-transference. In this article the author proposes his considerations on the transferences and resistances that are activated in the therapeutic process, concentrating on specific ways in which the transference and resistances can be recognized in sandplay.
