Psychoanalysis meticulously focuses on borderline cases. JB Pontalis defines the state of being borderline by taking the counter-transference of the psychoanalyst as the starting point. The transference and counter- transference relationship between the analyst and the analyzed during the analytical process, particularly in borderline cases, sometimes requires reviewing of the psychoanalytical setting. Margaret I. Little describes in her text how she lived this experience during her analysis with her D.W. Winnicott. Little talks about how Winnicott during this analytical process restored a communication with the patient and patient's psyche in all levels; sometimes crying with her, sometimes expressing his anger towards what he heard. For her it is very important to be considered and to be accepted ill. We can understand what Winnicott experienced during his counter-transfer, from what he put forth in his theory.
