✦ Synopsis
This paper concludes a three-part article which utilizes vignettes of dialogue from a case transcript to illustrate how Dr Davanloo executes his technique of Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (IS-TDP) with a complex masochistic patient with panic, functional and somatization disorders. In Part III, the reader is presented with the late phases of the initial diagnostic interview, or trial therapy, in which the therapist explores the genetic material with the aim of having a direct view of the psychopathological dynamic forces responsible for the patient's symptoms and character disturbances. The reader will also see how the therapist brings the interview to a close and prepares the patient for the subsequent therapy work. The author then provides a brief overview of IS-TDP's outcomes. The paper concludes with a discussion which features the distinction between the goals of restoration'' and reorganization'' of a patient's unconscious, and the importance of pressure and challenge to the IS-TDP clinician's ability to successfully carry out the latter in a complex case.
