Certain aspects of the temporal dimension in analysis are taken up in light of Steinbock’s illuminating exploration of a Winnicott case report. Following Steinbock’s portrayal of the interrelation of linear and non-linear time dimensions, some consideration is given to the many different kinds of time encountered in analysis, and to the function of the frame in creating a specifically analytic experience of time duration. The concept of Transitional time is proposed to describe this peculiarly analytic state of consciousness in which heterodox qualities of psychical experience can be woven together, and the multi-dimensionality of time itself is integrated into the experience of going-on-being.
