The exceptional transference here is a seeming transference neurosis established during psychotherapy consisting of fifty-two interviews over a period of one and one half years. A strong ego in an intelligent man, psychologically minded but psychologically uninformed, apparently made this possible. It is stressed that in psychotherapy, too, transference can be utilized well and much insight can be attained, leading to real ego alterations. Thus, the author opposes the inclination among psychotherapists to abandon the transference, which seems to be regarded as a cumbersome, unfortunate by-product of treatment by those who would manipulate the transference rather than utilize it.
