These excerpts offer a critical examination of the extensive therapeutic relationship between the confessional poet Anne Sexton and her psychiatrist, Dr. Martin Orne, primarily focusing on the audiotaped final months of their sessions. These tapes were initially used to help Sexton cope with memory trouble during her sessions, yet their unauthorized public disclosure later ignited a major professional controversy. The material reviews central conflicts in Sexton's life, including her efforts to process childhood trauma and navigate volatile arguments with her husband, which intensified after President Kennedy’s assassination and Orne’s plan to leave Boston. Furthermore, the analysis contrasts Orne's more traditional, expert-driven approach to therapy, which often sought to diagnose Sexton's narcissism, with the patient's desire for a more mutual, co-creative relationship that acknowledged her value as a writer. Ultimately, the text uses this intense clinical dynamic to explore the historical shift in psychoanalysis toward understanding the importance of the analyst’s role as a witness-participant in the healing process.
