About
Expanding on the object relations approach to borderline pathology developed by Otto Kernberg and described in the Psychodynamic Psychotherapy of Borderline Patients, the authors stress the practical implications of the contract, illustrating how it provides a microcosm of the patient's inner world and an opportunity for the therapist to gain an early understanding of the nature of the patient's resistances.
