Six asthmatic patients met weekly for a year with two therapists. At first they were guarded and lacked insight, but gradually they became able to discuss matters of emotional importance. All of them revealed similar difficulties in relations with others, emotional conflicts, and neurotic symptoms and attitudes. They
achieved better adaptation to reality and there was a lessening of asthmatic attacks.
