Resumen
This article describes the relational qualities of the psychotherapist that are necessary to facilitate a supported therapeutic withdrawal for a middle-age man who relied on disengaging from relationships as a way to manage both internal criticism and involvement with people. The relational methods that supported therapeutic withdrawal provided the stimulus for the integration of early childhood memories.
