Indian Journal of Psychiatry Volume 61, Issue 5, September-October 2019 539 young individuals. For example, the “positive mirror” provided by the therapist intensifies transference formation among children. As a result, the child is able to restore his/ her feelings of worth and confidence in the adult world, irrespective of the therapeutic orientation of the clinician. All psychotherapies intend to change despair to hope, fear to courage, powerlessness to mastery, and demoralizing interpretations to favorable ones, which make youth sensitive to basic support and security provided by therapy.
