Abstract

Internalizing problems are frequent in children, but the active ingredients
that make a psychotherapy effective are still poorly understood. This study
aimed to analyze the psychodynamic therapeutic process of a school-age boy
who presented internalizing symptoms, whose treatment was interrupted
after 22 months. Participants were the patient and the therapist. The
Child Psychotherapy Q-Set was used to analyze the therapeutic process.
The results showed the characteristics of the therapist-patient relationship
and its transformations. Factors such as family conflicts, therapeutic
alliance with the parents, limitation to the ability to mentor the boy,
countertransference, skills, and adjustment of the therapist to the patient
impacted the therapeutic process, contributing to the observed outcome.
In order to clarify the questions about the effectiveness and mechanisms
of change in psychodynamic psychotherapy, and for the establishment of a
consistent base of evidence, it is essential to know, in fact, what happens and
how it happens in the clinical setting.
