Description

This work argues that the selection of 12 sessions on a once weekly basis mobilises hope and optimism in psychotherapy patients.

It also necessitates dealing with the conscious and unconscious conflicts and meanings surrounding time, termination and separation-individuation.

The patient knows precisely when the beginning stages of therapy are over, and where the middle and end are.

No other short-term therapy deals specifically with these issues.

Much of the theorising on time by Dr Mann is relevant to the termination issues in open-ended long-term psychotherapy and psychoanalysis proper.

Margaret Mahler's writings are also utilised.
