This paper aims to discuss the specificity of transference in short-term psychotherapy. The methodology used is a case study. The reciprocity relationship established at first by the therapeutic pair determined the psychotherapeutic space as a place for an “empty word”; the patient was only able to talk about the source of his suffering when the intern stepped out of her role as the subject she had been playing in the relationship. That move had a therapeutic effect on the patient, marked by the subtraction of the word - “the one who speaks loses”. Losing that place/symptom was the resulting effect of the treatment. The conclusion herein is that the proposal of short-term psychoanalytical treatments operates from the establishment of the patient as the subject in the treatment.
