Shared realities, therapeutic settings, and countertransference in times of crisis: a multinational qualitative study of psychotherapists' experiences.

Objectives: The main aim of this study is to capture the impact of shared external realities - such as global crises - on the therapeutic process, with particular attention to how these events challenge the traditional structures of psychoanalytic and psychotherapeutic work. More specifically, the study seeks to understand how mental health professionals perceive and experience these disruptions, how they have been compelled to question their clinical frameworks, and how they have adapted their practices to maintain therapeutic continuity in a context marked by uncertainty, instability, and the frequent need for improvisation.

Methods: We conducted a qualitative study among a population consisting of mental health professionals, which were recruited in multiple countries through associations and societies of psychologists, psychotherapists, and psychoanalysts.

Metasurface-enhanced light detection and ranging technology.

Deploying advanced imaging solutions to robotic and autonomous systems by mimicking human vision requires simultaneous acquisition of multiple fields of views, named the peripheral and fovea regions. Among 3D computer vision techniques, LiDAR is currently considered at the industrial level for robotic vision. Notwithstanding the efforts on LiDAR integration and optimization, commercially available devices have slow frame rate and low resolution, notably limited by the performance of mechanical or solid-state deflection systems.

[Benefit of the group for supporting a traumatised mother-baby dyad].

Research has been carried out to explore the countertransference reactions of a group of therapists faced with a mother having experienced traumatic events and her baby. The study highlights the potential advantages of a group setting for supporting these dyads.
