Abstract
In order to honour the work of Dana Birksted-Breen I will attempt to show how the reading of her work has impacted on my own thinking and changed it or modified it. I would like to begin by highlighting one of Dana's claims in The Work of Psychoanalysis. I will focus on two areas: (1) the development of symbolic capacity and its connection with temporality, and (2) the concept of reverie as a cornerstone of the psychoanalytic enterprise and that which promotes change. I will discuss these two topics following the development of some sessions of a patient. Through the clinical material I will deepen my understanding of Dana's concept of reverberation time in connection both with the progression of symbolic representation and with the use of reverie by the analyst in the inter-subjectivity of the session.
