After hearing Ferenczi's talks on theory and practice in New York in 1926, psychiatrist Harry Stack Sullivan urged his friend and colleague Clara Thompson to get analyzed by Ferenczi so they could learn his technique. After saving for 2 years Thompson was a patient of Ferenczi for three summers and then moved to Budapest full-time for analysis until Ferenczi's death. Two years after she returned to New York she attempted to analyze Sullivan. Analysis was broken off in anger by Sullivan after 14 months. Before the promised Ferenczian analysis began Thompson discovered Wilhelm Reich's Character Analysis (1933) and she tried an aggressive attack on character with Sullivan rather than Ferenczian trauma-oriented "relaxation" and "neocathartic" therapy. Sullivan could not tolerate this. Because of their own unhealed trauma both individually and in relation to each other, neither Thompson nor Sullivan was able to advance Ferenczi's views on trauma or its healing in America.
1926年，精神科医生哈里·斯塔克·沙利文在纽约听过费伦齐关于理论与实践的讲座后，敦促他的朋友兼同事克拉拉·汤普森接受费伦齐的分析，以便他们能学习他的技术。攒了两年钱后，汤普森在三个夏天里成为费伦齐的病人，然后搬到布达佩斯全职接受分析，直到费伦齐去世。回到纽约两年后，她试图分析沙利文。14个月后，分析因沙利文愤怒地中断。在承诺的费伦齐式分析开始之前，汤普森发现了威廉·赖希的《性格分析》（1933年），她尝试与沙利文一起对性格进行激进攻击，而不是采用费伦齐式的以创伤为导向的“放松”和“新宣泄”疗法。沙利文无法容忍这一点。由于他们各自以及彼此之间未愈合的创伤，汤普森和沙利文都无法在美国推进费伦齐关于创伤或其治愈的观点。
