A historic perspective on the roles of the patient and psychotherapist relative to creative expression clearly demonstrates an emphasis on content, on the projective interpretation of the product. The author challenges the emphasis on product rather than process, the educational 'shop-window' approach to achievers and the talented, as well as the negative effects of 'labeling', and the validity of some forms of projective psychological testing. Discussed is the influence exerted by the psychotherapist through Rogerian 'leakage'. In addition, techniques are suggested for expanding sensory awareness and synthesizing communication skills as a means of enhancing self-image and creative potential. The contention is that the more ways that a skill is synthesized, the more complete is the learning. The more complete the learning, the greater the sense of security. The more secure the individual, the more willing (s)he is to venture into other areas where risk of failure has been a deterrent.
关于患者和心理治疗师在创造性表达方面的作用的历史视角清楚地表明，重点在于内容，在于对作品的投射性解释。作者对强调结果而非过程、针对成功者和有天赋者的教育“橱窗”方法、“贴标签”的负面影响以及某些形式的投射性心理测试的有效性提出了质疑。文中讨论了心理治疗师通过罗杰斯式的“泄露”所施加的影响。此外，还提出了一些技巧，用于扩展感官意识和综合沟通技巧，以此作为增强自我形象和创造性潜力的一种方式。论点是，一项技能综合的方式越多，学习就越完整。学习越完整，安全感就越强。个体越有安全感，就越愿意冒险进入其他因失败风险而受到阻碍的领域。
