[The sense and need for clarification of relations in the psychotherapeutic team]

The effectiveness of a clinical psychotherapy largely depends upon how you succeed to integrate all workers - therapists and therapy mediators - and to reach a basic agreement to partnership in spite of hierarchical constraints. This requires a lot of detailed work and expense of time. The basic attitude makes it possible or impossible to treat reactions of transfer and counter transfer within the team and in the relationship with the patient and his background. The message is illustrated by practical examples.
