Conceptual trends and issues in the psychotherapy of schizophrenia
American Journal of Psychotherapy
|January 1, 1987
Abstract:
A review of the theoretical principles of exploratory, insight-oriented psychotherapy of schizophrenia shows three major trends: drive theory, object-relations theory, and ego-psychology. These trends follow the development of psychoanalytic theory and may relate to symptom clusters of the illness. Current considerations of countertransference follow similar lines.
