Abstract

“Resistance” is one of the most problematic and potentially counterproductive concepts in the entire field of psychotherapy. It is at the same time one of the most crucial, pointing toward perhaps the single most important factor -or, more accurately, set of factors- in determining the success or failure of the therapeutic enterprise. This paper explores this seeming contradiction in order to point toward an integrative resolution of the differing perspectives on resistance and related phenomena.
