Sobre o conceito de contratransferência em Freud, Ferenczi e Heimann

Abstract

All analysis is inevitably pierced by the countertransference. This phenomenonis one of the key issues of psychoanalytic's theory and technique as it affects theanalyst in his daily clinical and refers to his personal analysis, clinical supervisionand writing, because of the anguish relative to the transference's disturbing strangeness.Denoted its importance in this text, we will investigate the construction of itsconcept in Sigmund Freud as a experience necessary, but also as a problem to besolved, in Sándor Ferenczi's work, when approaching the countertransference as aninherent part of the transference relationship and the analytical technique. We willalso demonstrate its subsequent comprehension by Paula Heimann in 1950, whomade a major shift at the understanding of the term as an essential tool for analytical method.
