Abstract

Moments of Meeting (MoM) in psychotherapy are understood as shared moments between patients and therapists that allow a mutual implicit understanding about their relationship and create a new state of intersubjectivity that reconfigures the patient’s procedural knowledge of “being with others.” Despite ample theoretical and clinical descriptions of this phenomenon, little is known, from an empirical standpoint, about these kinds of moments in therapy.

Objective

: This study describes therapists’ experience of moments of meeting with their patients in psychotherapy, and how these moments relate to the patient’s change process.

Method

13 in-depth interviews conducted with therapists from different theoretical backgrounds were analyzed using Grounded Theory.

Results

Four categories were established: (1) Characteristics of moments of meeting, (2) Triggers of moments of meeting (3) Enabling conditions, and (4) Main effects of moments of meeting. A conceptual model was developed around an axial phenomenon that provides understanding on how moments of meeting contribute to the change process in psychotherapy, through the construction of shared relational knowing.

Discussion

: The value of moments of meeting for the therapeutic process is discussed and reflected upon, as well as their effect on changes regarding implicit relational knowing.

心理治疗变化的火花：治疗师如何理解会议对心理治疗变化的贡献

摘要

心理治疗中的会面时刻 (MoM) 被理解为患者和治疗师之间的共享时刻，允许对他们的关系进行相互隐含的理解，并创造一种新的主​​体间性状态，重新配置患者“与他人相处”的程序知识。尽管对这种现象进行了充分的理论和临床描述，但从经验的角度来看，关于治疗中的这些时刻知之甚少。

客观的

：这项研究描述了治疗师在心理治疗中与患者会面的经历，以及这些时刻如何与患者的变化过程相关联。

方法

使用扎根理论分析了对来自不同理论背景的治疗师进行的 13 次深度访谈。

结果

建立了四个类别：（1）会议时刻的特征，（2）会议时刻的触发因素，（3）使能条件，以及（4）会议时刻的主要影响。围绕一种轴向现象开发了一个概念模型，该模型通过构建共享的关系认知，提供了对会议时刻如何促进心理治疗变化过程的理解。

讨论

：讨论和反思治疗过程中会面时刻的价值，以及它们对内隐关系认知变化的影响。
