She teaches Infant Observation and is co-editor of Intimate Transformations: Babies with Their Families. Her focus in supervision is the Transference and Countertransference, mainly helping the student understand her experiences with the patient as a way to understand the patient, and how to use that understanding to formulate interpretations. Of special interest are aspects of patients’ suffering which are preverbal, and therefore more difficult to understand consciously.
