title: Empathy and intuition in becoming a psychiatrist: a case study.
abstract: This paper, through the use of the case study, presents the idea that the beginning psychiatrist must often depend on his own native intuition and emphathic skills during his early clinical work. A case is presented in detail to show that amide the anxiety, freshness, and inexperience typifying a beginning psychiatrist, a psychotherapeutic treatment that benefits both the patient and the psychiatrist can be carried out. The growth of the patient and the therapist is described over the course of a three-month hospitalization.
