American psychoanalyst Daniel Stern and the other members of the Boston Change Process Study Group are in its work interested in hardly conceptualizable components of psychotherapy, such as authentic moments of meetings between psychotherapist and client. They use researches on mother-infant relationship and attempt to explicitly describe the relationship dynamics leading to authentic moments of meeting between psychotherapist and client.
At the same time, they try to connect these pieces of knowledge with dynamic systems theory, cognitive psychology, neuroscience, philosophy of mind, and related disciplines. In this paper I introduce some basic psychotherapeutic concepts and ideas used by these theorists, such as moving together, moments here and now, moments of meeting, open space, implicit relational knowledge and last but not least intersubjectivity which is very popular term in contemporary psychoanalysis.
