 The IJPA - Discussion paper
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy utilises interpretation, but with patients with severe psychopathology, for many of whom this is the treatment of choice, clarification and confrontation occupy a significantly larger space than interpretation per se, and interpretations of unconscious meanings in the ‘here and now’ a larger space than interpretation in the ‘there and then’.
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy thus does not dilute the ‘gold’ of psychoanalysis with the ‘copper’ of support, but maintains an essentially psychoanalytic technique geared to analyse unconscious conflicts activated in the transference within a modified framework, spelled out and explicitly agreed to by the patient in advance.
Like psychoanalytic psychotherapy, supportive psychotherapy is carried out in ‘face-to-face’ sessions, and has the advantage of considerable flexibility regarding its frequency, from several sessions per week, to one session a week, or one or two sessions per month, according to the urgency of the patient’s present difficulties and the long-range objectives of the treatment.

 Unfree Associations: Inside Psychoanalytic Institutes by Douglas Kirsner
Psychoanalytic ideas are often perceived as being owned by Freud and his heirs enshrined in psychoanalytic institutions that have served vital gatekeeping and other political functions.

 Psychoanalytic Theory and Criticism: 3. The Post-Lacanians
Often close to representing femininity in traditional terms--the feminine as the shadow and the outside that supports culture--Montrelay is also concerned with exposing the phallocentric bias in the Lacanian ethical hierarchy that privileges the Symbolic over the Imaginary.
This is the direction of the transformative psychoanalytic critiques of Nicholas Abraham, Maria Torok, Gilles Deleuze, and Félix Guattari--Deleuze and Guattari, in particular, influencing those who wanted to go "beyond" primary Freudian concepts and Lacanian innovations such as the subject, the Imaginary, the Symbolic, and the Real.
Accordingly, their move in this area is aimed at psychoanalytic "theory" but just as intently at psychoanalysis as an institutional representation of culture in its bourgeois and patriarchal dimensions.
