β¦ Synopsis
Objective: To describe a programme of theoretical and clinical seminars, and to discuss the benefit of introducing a psychoanalyst's perspective to the supervisory process in psychiatric training.
Conclusions: Vignettes of work from seminars provide examples that explain how the teaching that occurs is at the level of understanding of the countertransference experience, rather than at the level of psychoanalytic formulations. An application of the psychoanalytic concept of containment is found to be helpful to the trainees in understanding patients, particularly those with borderline personality disorder.
