We conducted an international survey to better understand both the negative and positive reactions of distance treatment during the pandemic. We received 1,490 survey responses from practitioners from 56 regions and countries who remotely treated patients psychoanalytically during the beginning months of the Covid-19 pandemic. Eighty-nine percent of the practitioners agreed or strongly agreed that distance treatment is valuable when the patient is house-bound or when travel would be difficult or impractical. They also expected to treat about 47% of their patients via teletherapy in the future. A minority group (17%) with mainly negative opinions does not feel that distance analytic treatment is effective with exploring mental life. Those with mainly negative opinions had more difficulty with the technology, had little value for teletherapy even for the patient who is homebound or when travel would be impractical, and considered bodily presence as very important to outcome. The majority of respondents who have mainly positive opinions feel that they can work effectively with transference, resistance and relational problems in distance analytic treatment.

In this paper, the function of transference interpretation in Kleinian therapy is evaluated. In the beginning, definition of transference and transference interpretation is given in general terms. The term of transference refers to attributed emotions, attitudes, and phantasies from past towards a person in the present that are inappropriate for that person. Transference interpretations aim to reveal inappropriate attributions towards the therapist made by the patient. The term of transference offered with more rigorous and detailed definition in Kleinian theory, and transference is perceived as more inclusive. It is perceived as it starts from the beginning of therapy. As transference gains more importance in Kleinian therapy, transference interpretations become vital as well. Klein’s theory is based on object relations school and, thus, that the understanding of transference includes internalized objects. In Kleinian understanding, transference and transference interpretations takes place in the center of therapeutic work. Negative transference interpretations are significant as they enable the patient turn to the therapist. Additionally, as it is believed that all mental states carry the transferetial material, therapy is evaluated in the terms of the total situation. Total situation refers to all material in analytic work, both conscious associations and unconscious projections are valuable for understanding the transference, therefore, all analytic materials might be used for transference interpretations. Contemporary Kleinian therapists emphasized the importance of immediate ‘here and now’ interpretations. beginning. Then, Klenian theory is introduced very briefly. After that, highlighted points on transference and transference interpretations in Klenian therapy are investigated in details: Transference reactions as externalization of unconscious phantasy, emphasis on negative transference, the total therapeutic situation as a transferential material, interpretation of projective identification and part-objects in the transference. In conclusion, a general view of Klenian therapy is drawn and contemporary Klenian technique is mentioned. Transference Reactions The first time, transference became an issue in psychoanalysis was with Dora case of Sigmund Freud [1]. Then, it is believed that transference reactions bring out the vital materials of psychoanalytic work. Transference reactions supplies the essential information about repressed past experiences of the patient [2]. Transference is the experiencing of feelings, drives, attitudes, fantasies, and defenses toward a person in the present which are inappropriate to that person and are a repetition, a displacement of reactions originating in regard to significant persons of early childhood [2]. The transferred material does not have to reflect the reality. As an example of transference reaction, Habip [3] mentions about her patient who transferred the rash and impatient aspect of her mother

Aims: In order to improve the efficiency of hospitals in public sudden pandemic diseases, it is important to understand how it affects the hospital workers. The purpose of this study was to discuss the risk perception and psychological impact in the early stage of the COVID-19 on hospital staff, as well as the impact of hospitals of different levels, gender, age, post and working environment on it. Methods: In late February 2020, shortly after the COVID-19 epidemic situation had clearly controlled in China, a questionnaire was distributed consisting of questions on sociodemographic characteristics, 19 stress-related questions and the 15 risk perceptional questions to all 1837 workers from different levels of hospitals in different regions of China. Exploratory factor analysis was applied to these questions, and this produced four stress-related factors for evaluation (anxiety about infection, depression about infection, exhaustion, and feeling of hypothetical scenario), three risk perceptional factors for evaluation (risk percept about the pandemic in the region, concern pandemic, and influence). Multiple regression models were used to evaluate the association of individual characteristics with each score of the 7 factors, risk perception and psychological rating scale (RPAS). Results: 1837 valid questionnaires were obtained. The medical staff with more mental or psychological counseling was less affected, and the hospitals with lower frequency of pandemic information were more likely to feel unprotected. Working in a high-risk environment, people had a higher total score of RPAS and were more likely to feel anxious and tired, but they had a higher awareness of risk protection. Conclusions: It is necessary for medical institutions to protect hospital staff during the early stage of the pandemic via rapidly share information about the COVID-19, and provide necessary risk perception and psychological support can help to reduce the impact of the epidemic situation (COVID-19) on hospital staff.

Psychotherapy can be defined as a treatment method consisting of psychological tools whereby a trained expert works with a person or a group to resolve the patient’s biopsychosocial problems through relation and communication. There are numerous issues in psychotherapy practice that require further efforts to ground relevant concepts. Most psychiatrists’ practices have shifted towards offering psychopharmacological treatment alone for a number of reasons, such as increasing patient volume, recent pharmacological developments, protocols on drug therapies, time restriction on doctors and so on. At the same time, it is important to know why people turn to psychiatry, what makes them benefit from psychiatric services, and why they have chosen psychiatry over other fields in medicine. The answers to these questions bring us to a place and value of psychotherapies in the curriculum of psychiatric training. In all kinds of psychiatric practices, the leading treatment factor is the doctor-patient relationship, which should be formed within the transference/countertransference framework. What deems psychiatry different and more attractive than other fields of medicine are these skills, which can be collectively referred to as “psychotherapeutic intervention”. The psychiatry resident should be equipped with several skills and knowledge on psychiatric interviews during their psychotherapy education in order to employ a successful psychotherapeutic intervention. This paper aims to create a look into how psychotherapies and psychotherapeutic intervention should be understood and placed within current practices. [1,2]. This definition is in accordance with and a result of the “biopsychosocial (BPS) model,” a comprehensive approach that has been founded on the principle of giving equal importance to biological, psychological, and social factors in all matters relating to health [3,4]. The BPS model considers the patient’s personal and family history, physical and subjective experiences, and societal characteristics in diagnosis and treatment [3,57]. In this sense, psychotherapy can be defined as an effort to resolve the patient’s biopsychosocial problems through relation and communication [3,7]. Even though it has been easy to agree on a definition, the panorama of the psychotherapeutic field reflects numerous issues in practice and requires further efforts to ground relevant concepts. By these concepts, we mean the contradictory situation between the rigid approach we see when we look at dimensions that do not match the definition of psychotherapy and its place in practice (such as fanatical psychotherapy schools, education and certification processes) rather than known problems in the field of psychotherapy [1,8]. As long as we cannot resolve this contradiction, no matter how flexible we define it, in the final analysis, psychotherapy turns into a viable treatment modality only after receiving training and certification from an institution that works only und
