TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - Case presentation of a substance-abusing borderline patient. Illustrating use of the immediate transactional experience JO - Journal of substance abuse treatment A1 - Stanger, R. SP - 177 EP - 182 VL - 15 IS - 3 N2 - This paper presents a severely disturbed self-mutilating person with a chronic substance abuse history. It demonstrates how use of the immediate transactional experience is an analytic model, facilitated treatment. The authentic use of the therapist's self is endorsed as mutative in facilitating personality change in the patient. Fellow professionals are encouraged to respond to this paper in the service of fruitful analytic dialogue, in the service of promoting more effective treatment of this difficult population in equally difficult times.
