Archeo-vocal therapy
Personality “tuning, retuning”
Archeo-vocal therapy is a method that can be applied both as an independent therapy method and as a supplementary technique adapted to a therapeutic framework. It aims to hear, understand and use preverbal sounds in therapy. It emphasizes the significance of “preverbal talk” that occurs beside and often in place of verbal communication. It views the nonverbal elements of the client’s voice as signals of symptoms with significant communication value, heralds of the experiences of our damaged fetal and later preverbal and verbal lives. In our study we introduce the theory and practice of archeo-vocal therapy. In the first part of our article, following an introduction of the method’s basic philosophy and the meaning of the term “archeo-vocal”, we discuss the developmental psychological background of the voice, followed by a description of the archeo-vocal method’s immediate theoretical background. In the second part on methodology we introduce the main instruments of archeo-vocal therapy and a possible roadmap of therapy work, followed by practical examples for group and individual therapy processes. After the introduction of a brief self-help practice, we conclude our text with a summary.
Keywords: archeo-vocal – archeo-vocal therapy

The emergence of spirituality in professional relations between psychotherapists – outcomes of a Hungarian qualitative study
In our paper we publish the outcomes of a qualitative study, which we conducted among Hungarian psychotherapists on the subject of the appearance of spirituality in the professional relations. In the research semi-structured interviews were carried out with 31 Hungarian psychotherapists, who had been practicing at least for ten years, trained in diverse psychotherapeutic methods. We asked how the theme of spirituality emerged in professional relations, trainings, in professional public life and forums. Interviews were analyzed by the qualitative method of grounded theory. In our paper we shortly introduce the selective and axial codes emerging from the coding process of the recorded interviews. Our results draw a picture of the appearance of spirituality in the professional life, and of the attitudes, experiences, demands, conflicts, and pioneering initiatives surrounding it. We draw parallels and different focal points compared to international practice by comparing the outcomes of our interviews and the publications based on European and US research on the needs of psychotherapeutic training aiming to acquire competencies related to spirituality, and also on the available, and missing opportunities and practices in professional forums. Based on our research results, the systematization of needs, shortcomings, and forward-looking initiatives on the topic helps to reflect on the present practice and to formulate possible future directions.
Keywords: psychotherapeutic training – professional relations – spirituality – grounded theory

Being a psychotherapist in Hungary today: the problems under a psychoanalyst’s scrutiny
Working as a psychotherapist needs independence and inner stability. We work with our patients in close intimacy where we need much creativity to use spontaneously the technical and human skills that we learned and developed during our training period. It seems to be uncontested that the quality of working alliance correlates positively with treatment outcome. In the article using psychoanalytic concepts, I examine those constituents of the psychotherapist’s attitude which might influence the creation and maintenance of the working alliance. Then I discuss those inner, character, and outer, institutional factors that might affect negatively the development of the psychotherapist’s skills for creating and maintaining working alliance in the psychotherapeutic process. In my analysis using a psychoanalytic approach and concepts, I examine some pathogenic institutional phenomena as they manifest themselves in various Hungarian clinical psychological and psychotherapeutic training institutes and professional institutions.
Keywords: working alliance – the psychotherapist’s personality – psychotherapy institutes and institutions

Holes in the bread. Becoming a psychoanalyst in Bosnia – Hercegovina
The authors introduce a peer-supervision method developed from there practice. They use the term “peer conversations and dreaming” to describe two peer analytical colleagues who, within rules and setting of analysis, “talk and share mutual thoughts, experience and associations” about their work. There was no psychoanalyst in Bosnia Hercegovina, and another candidate took the role of the supervisor. The paper illustrates on a case the way they worked. In the background, there is the shared history of the war in Yugoslavia. We can see how the authors wrestle with being isolated, but also the germs of a later professional organization.
Keywords: “peer conversations and dreaming” – trauma – war – reverie – countertransference
