The interviewer's "presenting problems" in the initial interview.
Abstract
Complex countertransference responses that contribute to the interviewer's presenting problems in the initial interview with a patient are related to: the clinician's preinterview fantasies, the interviewee's empirical reality, and the patient as experienced creatively. Presenting problems may be an unavoidable component of clinical contact, but when the interviewer responds to them with psychological-mindedness, they can contribute to realistic assessment and positive case disposition.
