The author reviews the literature on identifying affect as a technical tool, on the nature of affect in general, and on the relationship between affect and repression. How affect comes to light in the clinical setting is discussed, as well as how it and defenses against it can be worked with to deepen the psychoanalytic process. Two extended clinical examples and many shorter vignettes illustrate the usefulness of following the patient’s affect in the psychoanalytic setting.
