The fundamentally ambiguous nature of all interpretation exposes the analytic situation to unexpected and possibly threatening cases of emergence of the drive. The natural tendency of the analyst to inhibit interpretation ensures the protection of processes and framework. At the same time, however, it also encourages an avoidance of conflict?; whilst favouring a secondary and logical thought process that provides coherence to discourse. The analyst must therefore navigate between both forms of inhibition, inhibition that protects and inhibition that immobilises.
