Teleanalysis offers a window into the analytic pair’s experience of time, space, deprivation, fantasy, and physicality and shows unconscious dynamics displayed graphically on the image on the screen. The technology is a third in the therapeutic alliance, and its impact needs to be analyzed like every other element in the field.Teleanalysis appears to some people to be a distancing methodology, but the authors report surprising closeness across a distance. It describes the essentials of a framework for teleanalysis that is secure in terms both of technology and ethical stance
