Control analysis is an essential element of psychoanalytic formation. In this setting, the candidate’s own practice becomes the subject of psychoanalytic work. The focus is not only on technique, but on the transference, countertransference, and unconscious structures that emerge in the treatment. Through this process, the analyst-in-training develops a capacity to sustain the analytic frame, tolerate impasses, and clarify their listening to the unconscious. If you are in analytic formation and are interested in exploring the possibility of analytic control, contact me.
