Cure according to Berne
• Cure is a progressive process than a once off process.
• Cure is a matter of progressively learning to exercise new choices.
• The client will likely pass through a series of stages of improvement, distinct in their nature although the boundaries between them might not be sharply recognizable.
Cure according to Berne• Each stage represented a
genuine gain as compared to the one before it.
• Therapist and client might agree to terminate treatment at any one of these way stages if the client found it satisfactory.
• However, only the last stage represented the most fundamental degree of change in the client.
Stages of cure
1. Social control
2. Symptomatic relief
3. Transference cure
4. Script cure
Stage 3 – Transference Cure• Here, the client substitutes the
psychotherapist for the original parent. She
now sees the psychotherapist as fulfilling a
role in her script.
• But she experiences him as doing so in a
more benign way than the actual parent did.
• The client may experience considerable relief
from child fears and anxieties now that she
has this more benevolent parent to relate to.
Stage 3 – Transference Cure
• She may also break free from some of her
original destructive parental messages,
substituting for them the positive
messages she takes on board from the
psychotherapist.
• This stage , however, does not represent
the final goal of cure, since the client still
has to keep the psychotherapist around in
her head in order to maintain her change.
Stage 3 – Transference Cure• Berne acknowledged the work of the
psychoanalyst Fenichel (1945) in elucidating
the nature of such “transference
improvement”.
• A diagnostic clue of this third stage of cure is
that the client will shift the main focus of the
game – playing on to the psychotherapist.
• Often, this will be accompanied by a
corresponding reduction in game – playing
outside the therapy room.
