This discussion attempts to think alongside ideas on creative form and genesis presented in Erica Ehrenberg’s paper. Is analytic (and creative) process facilitated by the right kind of space or by a more active process? How do we think about presence in facilitating psychoanalytic change? What follows is an effort to expand Ehrenberg’s ideas by bringing them into rapport with concepts of the transformational object, attunement, and the aesthetic basis of therapeutic action. I present a therapeutic model where shifts in one’s being-in-the-world precede and enable the availability of new perceptual windows into one’s inner unconscious forms. In this model, the analyst is considered a living process, rather than an object or a set of provisions, that has the potential to induce new states of being through the aesthetic matrix of the treatment.
