Violette - I think I was referring to his education, training, and work giving him a saturated exposure to anything and everything 'psych'. Some ideas, of course, will be more salient for him than others. Point is, that his tendency to say things that are transferential is more likely due to that overexposure rather than him trying to create a dr./pt dynamic, etc.

> Solstice, I'm totally lost on this one. I thought Dr. Bob was a psychatrist-I did not know he was a psychoanalyst too-is he/are you Bob? My experience with most psychiatrists is that they didn't focus on psychology, but have an education in biochemistry, how the brain and body works etc. and understand symptoms in terms of cognitive function as opposed to object relations. My psychiatrist went to school for at least 4 more years for his psychoanalytic studies after he completed his psychiatry education and residency/MD. I always viewed Dr. Bob as a behavioralist, at least from what I have seen on this forum, rather than someone who understands transference and object relations.

> I dont' recall a psychoanalyst ever stating something so simplistic as this during the course of psychoanalytic therapy. But - this is interesting to me becaues my perspective of Dr. Bob is totally different (at least in some respects) than the perspectives of both you and Twinleaf. Of course we are all different, so that would be expected...still interesting. I think Bob is more behavioral oriented, and his semi-frequent posts about our childhood seem totally out of context to me in terms of Bob's stated ideals and other philosphies he displays here.
