Abstract: 'Masterson's thesis is that, for the real self to finally emerge from the symbiotic union and assume its full capacities, identification, acknowledgment and support are required--from the mother and father in early development and from the therapist in psychotherapy. He describes and illustrates the therapeutic technique of communicative matching which provides the necessary acknowledgment while maintaining therapeutic neutrality.'
